- That Thing You Do

Thirteen more days of school. People keep telling me to “hang in there,” because it’s “almost over.” Picture Mufasa in The Lion King, dangling off the side of the cliff with just his claws scrambling for traction while Scar pushes his toes loose one by one. Anyway, it’s not almost over, is it? We get one stern gasp of breath, and then dive right in for the bar exam. Sigh.

That Thing You Do was on last night. I’ve seen it 1,346,925 times and yet I watch it every time it’s on. What a fantastic film.
