Yeah, the plague of the extended breaks in the fuel island. I’ve talked to people periodically, wondering why they’re tying up the pump when there’s a half empty lot, and several have been completely unaware that on-duty time counts towards their 30-minute break — they’ve no idea you can use yard move to go grab a spot after fueling. Again, going to the serious lack of training these drivers are getting. They’re simply clueless. And since there’s often poor English proficiency, they are no doubt shy about asking other drivers for help or advice.

I always loved the innocent earnestness Reeve brought to the Clark Kent persona. When you were talking about Heartbreak Ridge the other day, it made me think of my favorite character in that film — the nerdy Lieutenant Ring (played by Boyd Gaines) who has a cool little arc of moving from a really green ROTC rookie, to an excellent leader by the end. Anyway, I always felt Gaines might have based his performance heavily upon Reeve’s Clark Kent — the nerd you can’t help loving and rooting for.

@TheStingisBack https://t.co/p54n1U4Ywj Paul Whitehouse’s impression of Caine’s rising or explosive vehemence always cracks me up. “A bleeding sly fag, mind!” 😂

@TheStingisBack Still Crazy (1998) — greatest on *my* list. I absolutely love this hidden gem.

That was fascinating, thanks for the share. 👍 You have to hang with him through the entire video, hear the nuances of his arguments, and hear his thinking to even understand the question he’s posing. By the way, anyone that weaves in an illustration of Brian Blessed shouting “Gordon’s alive!” from the top of Mount Everest has me hitting the subscribe button reflexively. 😜😂

@TJandCasper So tired of these shitbird scam operators putting livelihoods and lives at risk! 🤬

@TheStingisBack Heather (1988). You just know there’s got to be sensitivity consultants in the scriptreading stage now, and this wouldn’t have made it past that phalanx of namby-pamby karens. One of the best films of all-time, by the way.

@TheStingisBack Once Were Warriors (1994)

[Mark T. Ingham @Mark_OTR]

@TheStingisBack Cool to see “Wait Until Dark” getting so many mentions. Mr. Sting, you also brought up Frankenheimer’s “The Train” in the black-and-white thread. Fantastic film! https://t.co/7VXBrWLKU1

This film annoys the hell out of me for the same reason. The only highlight for me is Cameron’s cool Miesian/Modernist house. Too bad Cameron’s dad murdered him, and buried him in the ravine behind the house after learning about the demise of the Ferrari — all thanks to manipulative little shit Ferris. 😂

@TheStingisBack Off by a century. “1987” 🙄

[Mark T. Ingham @Mark_OTR]

@TheStingisBack Wings of Desire (1887) — Cinematographer: Henri Alekan. It’s an all-time fave, always vying for my number one spot. I love this film.

@TheStingisBack Dunkirk (2017)

I remember President Reagan was a bit of a jellybean fanatic. Evidently he took them up as a way to quit smoking when he was governor of California, and got a permanent sweet-tooth addiction to them. He always had a crystal jar of them at hand on his Oval Office desk. Jelly Belly diplomacy.
