Whatcha watching?

One movie that I would love to see again but don't even know the title of was based on a true crime story. A boy sees a classmate girl of his at the park and takes her for a ride on his bicycle. She ends up dead and he was the last known person who saw her alive.

The movie had a creepy vibe due to it being filmed in the late 60s or early 70s. But it was based on a 1959 case of Steven Truscott and Lynne Harper.

The best Christmas movie of all time.

Christmas, early morning before sunrise, is for me. Wife will still be sleeping. Only the Christmas tree lights will be on in the dark quiet. No TV, computer, cell phone, while a choir sings. I don't know why, but this personal tradition appeals to me. Reverential music and solitude to think and reflect, I suppose.

This year's choice.:

I love choir and symphony orchestra music this time of year.
 
I saw Aquaman 2. I fell asleep. I woke up at some point and there were a lot of pretty colors and splosions. I left. I'm not sure how much time was left. I won't see it again less tired.

That movie and the first one looked like parody commercials from SNL. They didn't appear to me to be real movies until I realized why yes indeed they are in the theater.

Was it good?
I thought so. They certainly didn't gloss over the nitty gritty of Enzo's life. It was told like it was for the most part. Certain things like the accident at the final Mille Miglia got quite gruesome, and there is a lot of interplay between the issues between Enzo and Laura, regarding his romantic life with Lina.
