This was an exciting week on Days of Our Lives.
Theo went off the rails, John's plan to rescue Joey didn't quite work, and the bad guys escaped yet again.
Meanwhile, there was a lot more nonsense on the Rafe/Hope/Aiden front, while Sonny had a falling out with Chad and Gabi was actually nice to Jj!
The Joey kidnapping story could have been a great story. A crazy criminal with a grudge against a bunch of legacy characters is always exciting and interesting.
Except for this is Joey we're talking about. Joey's fear and attempts to escape were all very tepid and assisted the storyline in falling flat.
In addition, the rescue itself was really ridiculous.
He's got my boy.

Strand Releasing has picked up North American rights to director William C. Sullivan's sexy, Lgbt-centric "That's Not Us," which played Frameline, Outfest, and InsideOut Toronto Film Festival earlier this year and won an ensemble award at Out On Film in Atlanta. The film will also open the Image+Nation festival in Montreal later this month. Watch: "Peter Greenaway's 'Eisenstein in Guanajuato' Gets Gorgeously Nutty First Trailer" The film chronicles the intimate lives of three 20-something couples—one straight, one gay, one lesbian—over the course of a few days at the end of summer. "That's Not Us" was co-written and shot by Derek Dodge and produced by co-stars Mark Berger and Sarah Wharton. Strand, which is also distributing Catherine Corsini's "Summertime," Peter Greenaway's "Eisenstein in Guanajuato," and Ulrich Seidl's "In the Basement," plans a multi-platform release next spring.

The Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas, which present contemporary and classic films at their unique restaurant/theaters, have delved into the DVD business- and retro movie lovers can thank their lucky stars. One of the most prominent of the Drafthouse releases is Wake in Fright, a 1971 Australian film classic by Ted Kotcheff, a Canadian born director who had never previously set foot Down Under prior to making this movie. Based on the novel by Kenneth Cook, Wake in Fright is unknown to many film scholars who pride themselves on being acquainted with worthwhile, little-seen films. (I must shamefully admit that I fall into this category myself, having never even heard of the film prior to reviewing the Blu-ray release). Based on the title, I assumed this was a suspense thriller or a horror film. It is neither. In fact, it is virtually impossible to pigeon-hole this movie into a specific genre.
