Some holiday firsts: watched "It's a Wonderful Life" Xmas Eve and finally watched "Casablanca" with my wife, Sue. Hadn't seen either movie before.

Both films are just as relevant today. 1) Kindness and humanity before profit and 2) fight fascism at any cost #classicfilm #casablanca

Hope From a Darkened Heart - excellent Sakamoto produced album.
