I've spoken my piece and counted to three.

Netflix has been the greatest thing, and tonight I am watching O Brother Where Art Thou. I'm not sure what I thought it was, but I didn't think it would be near this good. The soundtrack is phenomenal, the humor nicely laid, and some of the guest spots finely woven in, with my favorite being Holly Hunter. I am just in love with her.

I should read Homer, on which this movie is (loosely, I bet) based. There are scenes that I would guess belonged to an ancient seer or prophet, and three sirens. Some of the rest of it, I'm having to guess at what the original writing might entail.

But I have enjoyed this movie.
