I've got both Elvis and Rocketman out. I'll probably watch Rocketman before Elvis.

No, they didn't have it at the library I was at, so I put it on hold. That's another one that I might have on my computer somewhere.

It received eight nominations at the 95th Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Sound, Best Production Design, Best Cinematography, Best Makeup and Hairstyling, Best Costume Design, and Best Film Editing.

Was going to watch Top Gun: Maverick yesterday, but the time was running short, so I sampled one of my new videogames instead (Call Of Duty: WWII). I'll try tonight.

3 million pop in Norway in 1940, 3,000 mechant ships - they lost 20% of them and women were serving on them even on the Murmansk run. :o
