They could at least have asked George Costanza to be the hand-double! "Or 'David'..." "It - Chapter 2" is (albeit a mediocre movie) a perfect example of age counterparts done right. https://www.buzzfeed.com/crystalro/kids-vs-adults-it-chapter-two Fargo. Like The Last Jedi! 🙂 Good point I guess. Perhaps Doc thought she would believe him if he told her the truth, without having to prove it. He came to say goodbye, not to convince her about him being a time traveller. I don't think he planned to tell her about the reason that he had to leave. Thanks Kowalski! 👍I'll catch a few episodes tonight. I'm too nice! JK. I guess my biggest flaw is that I worry too much. I'm very privileged and lucky, and in the grand scheme of things I have nothing to worry about (except death and taxes)! I know that you're a man of excellent taste, MMC2, so now I've definitely give it a try👍. Thanks for the recommendation! From what I've seen it certainly does look very promising! My son does and he loves it! "Lieutenant Dan and his Magical Space Shuttle Titanium Alloy Legs" No! The funny man who plays the penguin is the very soul of <i>Le Papa Pingouin</i>! It's a classic! 👍 A Fish Called Wanda. https://youtu.be/qguwpiDbMws The old lady is the target, and Ken (the incompetent assassin) is an avid animal lover... Nothing beats this masterpiece! It should have won! https://youtu.be/LTECukPlnuk The Empire Strikes Back. Mikhail Gorbatjov (89) I'm guessing the good ole Coin-on-a-String Trick! <blockquote> "Thank you for your letter. I regret that I am not clear as to what you intend by arisch. I am not of Aryan extraction: that is Indo-Iranian; as far as I am aware none of my ancestors spoke Hindustani, Persian, Gypsy, or any related dialects. "But if I am to understand that you are enquiring whether I am of Jewish origin, I can only reply that I regret that I appear to have no ancestors of that gifted people. My great-great-grandfather came to England in the eighteenth century from Germany: the main part of my descent is therefore purely English, and I am an English subject—which should be sufficient. "I have been accustomed, nonetheless, to regard my German name with pride, and continued to do so throughout the period of the late regrettable war, in which I served in the English army. I cannot, however, forbear to comment that if impertinent and irrelevant inquiries of this sort are to become the rule in matters of literature, then the time is not far distant when a German name will no longer be a source of pride. </blockquote> https://www.newsweek.com/hobbit-how-tolkien-sunk-german-anti-semitic-inquiry-his-race-1132744
