HALFWAY THERE BUT WHERE IS THERE?

Today's film (and tomorrow's) is the Russian

Kak ya provel etim letom / How I Ended the Summer (2010)

Suspense on an isolated weather station which is about to be retired.

The last two guys, an "intern" and an old salt guy. THey have some drama going already and then something happens.

I can't tell you what.

So far, it isn't the bears that they are always worrying about.

It is pretty good. Starts slow then edge of the seat. A lie of omission happens and then the shit begins to hit the fan.

I like it a lot and besides the excuse that I was behind in my "work" schedule today, I want to draw it out. I do this with novels too. Slow it down. Savor the suspense.
