Shifty
I don't know how I missed this first
time around, but I've caught up now. Gritty and uncompromising, but
really a short look at two mates getting back together after too
long. Now and again actors just seem to gel, hit it off somehow to
make something work naturally and organically. They work without any
suspicion that they are anything other than the characters they are
playing.
Composers' names
I listened to Mahler's 9th
Symphony. While listening, for some reason, I remembered (in one of
those useless information remembered episodes) that his name was
Gustav. Or at least I thought it was. I had to check. Then, later, I
thought that there could be certain entertaining improvements made to
composers' names:

Igor is just funny, with all the
“wooorking in the lab, late one night” stuff.
