It is nice living just a mile from the mall and a movie theatre with 12 screens. They show movies all day and offer a discount for old people for the early bird shows. We wanted to see the American Sniper - so at 3 PM we drove the electric car over and bought two $8 tickets. To our surprise there may have been 40 people - mostly gray heads - that had the same idea as us.
The movie is about an American soldier that killed 150 people during the Iraq War by sniping. He entered the military at a late age - 30. He served on 4 separate tours of duty. The movie is expected to win many Academy Awards - being directed by Clint Eastwood.
The movie is very entertaining - considering the grim premise.
It is a shame so many people were killed in this senseless George Bush War. There was absolutely no reason we were fighting there other than to make some people very rich. Shame on us.
