Resurrection finished

Excitement, page-turner.  Judge disallows DNA evidence because the DNA was always present so it's not new evidence, which is what a habeas corpus hearing looks into.  The fact that the first lawyer didn't present it means Mickey would have to go another route.  Mickey throws a fit and gets jailed for contempt.  (Earlier recreation of murder showing Lucinda wasn't tall enough was also thrown out because AI was used . . . not yet permissible in court.  Sgt. Sanger's DNA was on the swab indicating she switched the original swab out to implicate Lucinda.  In the break before Sanger is called to the stand, she's murdered by drug cartel guy.  (Lucinda's husband was cooperating with the FBI--giving information on police clique/gang that was doing the dirty work of the cartels.  He was killed by Sanger or another member of the police gang.)  Harry sees Sanger's murder and chases after guy . . . Harry too old and tired to catch him.

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.
