sweet hereafter movie

 tonight, i went to the Trylon cinema and saw the movie 'sweet hereafter'. it is part of 'bleak week' that this cinema is presenting. i chose this one as i had seen some other movies directed by Atom Egoyan, after hearing about him at an Armenian festival i have attended. it is about a school bus crash that kills most of the kids on board, and the story includes a girl reading 'pied piper' to some kids she babysits. the lawyer trying to bring a lawsuit on behalf of the families is dealing with a drug-addicted daughter that is often calling him collect. i read further about it on Wikipedia only after seeing it, waiting as i know there are spoilers everywhere. it is based on a book where the story takes place in upstate New York, but the movie takes place in Canada. and the book was inspired by an actual event, a bus crash in Texas. while there i picked up a pamphlet that tells us what is scheduled for this venue during the months of July, August, and September. i read it and two more movies of interest were found, but i don't buy tickets too far in advance. i have an advance ticket for another one in this 'bleak series' in a few days. at work this was a really nice catch-up day, after starting off with a donut as the building management company had them near the elevators in honor of 'national donut day'. four more tubs of checks were sent to the mailroom at the end of the day, and the backlog is down to just over one thousand checks to run through. i got one more online class completed as well, so all are done and over with. a ticket was opened to get a toner cartridge for the check printer sent, as all too often those aren't getting auto-shipped. when i went to get groceries at hy-vee in eagan in the evening, i stopped at their liquor store first and got a can of paulaner. i liked the one i had drank for the evening meal the previous day, a munich lager, so i got another one. there still are four beers waiting. during my walks i found 53 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when we see a season finale, 'we have to talk' was what many of the characters said. this included amy, to sheldon, essentially a break-up. it was followed by the one where sheldon fakes getting back together for penny's dad.
