New on DVD today--

Last fall I received movie passes in the mail for a modest feature starring Robert Downing Jr. and Val Kilmer Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. The movie is actually described as containing a mystery story and that's good and seemingly rare for Hollywood these days. I was pleased to get those passes because I had heard about the movie and concluded they would be ideal for the book club. I was also very pleased to learn the book club was recognized outside the library walls.

The movie passes came from a marketing firm in Atlanta. However, I also had a great disappointment with the movie passes--they arrived too late to be used.

But to make the long story short, the book club does get movie passes now and again on a timely basis. And the movie that we missed has been released DVD today. A commentator on CNN Headline News said today that hopefully the movie will find an audience on DVD as it did not as a motion picture release. He described it as a mystery with a lot of humor.

And of interest to those in the Charlotte area, the DVD will soon be available at the public library. It is rated R for language, violence, sexuality and nudity.
