Day 21: Friday, June 4, 2010 - Mike

Horrific allergy day, for some reason.  But beautiful weather, nonetheless. Biked 10 miles, then had to go up to the office for the morning and early afternoon.  It was so nice to be away, for so many days.  Came home to take some pills for the allergies and napped a bit.  Ros was out with the "girls" all evening, so I stayed home and watched RKO 281 (1999), which was quite interesting after teaching Citizen Kane all semester. HBO did a nice job of paying homage to the film and its background.

If you want to study a bit more in depth what is considered "the greatest film ever made," over a couple of days time, watch these shows and films in this order; first, The Battle Over Citizen Kane, then the film itself, then RKO 281.
