Trespassers

Breslin and McCann continue to act guilty, and now O'Kelly joins them.  Someone seems to be following Antoinette.  Cops harassing her--at work and away from work.  Stuff on her desk is moved around, examined.

Theories:  1)  Rory did it in a fit of rage.  Annoying that A. and Steve keep acting as if this is possible as they have no case and the guy just doesn't fit.   2) Aislinn, looking for her missing dad, had a 2nd beau, a gangster, who killed her.  This is "done in" by the news that dad is dead and has been for some time.  He's just a guy who ran away from a bad marriage.  3) Dad is still alive. Dad is a gangster or was in the pocket of gangsters. A gangster killed Antoinette.  4) The cops in her squad are completely corrupt.  The murder is to keep the corruption from spilling into public, so they want Rory sent up pronto.

Style:  Antoinette's kick-ass tough girl is wearing me down.  The honest, heart-of-gold underneath and all that.   Steve also is annoying at times.  Who would take A's crap all the time and still like her?  He doesn't dish anything out.  But . . . still very enjoyable.

Prediction:  Dad is/was alive.  Police corrupt. Not gangs . . . but something else.

Netflix Lincoln Lawyer

 Just a long yawner.  Acting was fine; there just wasn't nearly enough plot to carry 10 episodes.  Tech guy accused of killing wife.  LL takes on the case after the tech lawyer's first lawyer is murdered.  Mickey Haller gets the guy off . . . trick is the guy is guilty.  He used a drone to dispose of bloody clothes.  Subplot Maggy McFierce trying to get a conviction of a human trafficker.  She loses but then wins.  The divorced couple almost gets back together, but they are on opposite sides of the adversarial process and work comes first.  Won't be in a hurry to watch Season 2

Live and Let Die

 The Fleming book, flawed by 50's racism, moves along in plot and character.  Fleming is an excellent writer--great descriptive powers and pacing. The movie has no redeeming qualities.  All that's left from the book is the racism, and in the book you can feel Fleming's doubts about his racist scenes slipping in.  In the movie (made years later), the racism is incredible.  1972.  Those who say no progress has been made should watch this.  Impossible to imagine this film being made today.
