I saw the DVD Three Mo' Tenors. It was originally broadcast on PBS spanning four hundred years of music, three languages and seven different musical styles. It was entertaining, and utterly watchable throughout although the wide range of music felt jarring at time as you settle into a mood and are jolted into another.

RATING 7 out of 10

I also watched the movie Solaris. I like Steven Soderbergh and have been meaning to watch this one. George Clooney did a good job with the material, but the film falls a little flat. It tries to be too deep, too cerebral but does little to make you want to stay awake and see the resolution. Clooney's talents are for the most part wasted as he deadpans the entire film - he is just not as believable nor fun to watch as a deep thinker as he is when he portrays the mischeivous smart ass type.
