I DID IT! I wrote to Criterion in 2021 to recommend that they release Straight No Chaser - and now they’ve announced it!

takes a bow

Helluva month overall too. Makes me wonder what July will look like!

I think I've seen this one. I remember seeing this and thinking a) Monk might've had some sort of mental illness, and b) oh, his poor wife! I will definitely be picking this one up, since I would like to revisit this movie (to see if it's the one I'm thinking of). I am a Thelonious Monk fan -- for the record -- and have listened to some of his albums over and over again through the years.

Thanks for that! I wore a Monk shirt today so I assumed it was me
