The Tomb of Ligeia 1964
Something is wrong with Price's hair and he wears ridiculous beatnik sunglasses. The Castle Acre Priory ruins are fantastic. Shephard is good. The ambiguities of the love triangle (ignoring Christopher) left me uncomfortable. There seems to be more going on under the surface than in the rest of the Poe cycle. Deserves consideration in the canon of obsession-horror.

Viva Las Vegas 1964
Elvis is stiff in this compared to Blue Hawaii and it looks like something happened to his face--drugs or surgery I'm not sure. Ann-Margret is phenomenal--the main attraction and the producers seemed to know it. She gets roughly equal screen time and plays off Elvis like a backboard. Better scenery in Blue Hawaii but the music is better here. Very wtf race scene dropped in from another movie. Great double-feature with Showgirls (watch this second).

Thousands of civilians in a dozen countries killed as “collateral” in US airstrikes. 176,000 total dead in the Afghanistan war, including 46,000 civilians, and 24,000…
