Extra movies.

 *

Also watched: 

- Glass Onion. Engaging, fan-favorite sequel to the equally beloved whodunit "Knives Out". A very rare case in which the fandom adoration for the movie is mostly deserved. Entertertaining and clever.

- The pale blue eye. Overlong mystery yarn that starts as a quirky homage to grim thrillers a la The purple rivers --and descends into a so-so rape-revenge supsenser by the end. Not the worst, could have been far better.  

- The imitation game. Biopic about Alan Turing and his Enigma creation. As straight-washed, edges-sanded-down as you'd expect but an okay mainstream introduction to more complex themes. Could be better.
