Channel distribution

Comments

After two years, have finally hooked up the digital cable box, which has otherwise been gathering dust, and lo and behold! Look what I’ve been missing! TCM, Sundance, BBC America, IFC… This weekend I’ll be able to see Ripley’s Game, starring John Malkovich, based on Patricia Highsmith’s followup to The Talented Mr. Ripley. Also recently recorded are The Trials of Henry Kissinger and The Wonderful Horrible Life of Leni Riefenstahl. With all these films, I’ll most likely have to upgrade the TiVo one of these days.

For about two seconds this week, I briefly considered rekindling my Netflix subscription. Guess not.
