Movie: **Apocalypse Now** – I just keep finding levels on which to appreciate it. _The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari_, _The Usual Suspects_, and _The Wolf Man_ (1941) are up there, too. TV Show: \*\*Law & Order SVU \*\*-- I’ve been watching it a lot, and I like it. Not much else to say; I don’t feel too bad about omitting _Mad Men_, _Dexter_, _The Prisoner_, or _M_A_S_H\*. Album: **The Complete Columbia Recordings of Miles Davis with John Coltrane** – I’m cheating her, but this is more satisfying than any rock/pop or classical offering I can think of, though _Born to Run_, _Beggar’s Banquet_, _Are You Experienced_, and \*Robert Johnson: The Complete Recordings \*are probably closest Novel: \*\*The Old Man and the Sea \*\* – I’m not too attached to this, but I’m not a big novel reader. \*To Kill a Mockingbird \*would have been a good one, too, but I’ve never assigned it–it’s a little long for ELL classes. Nonfiction Book(s): **The Golden Bough** – The multi-volume set. Reading this isn’t a one-time thing; it’s practically an avocation. ---
