On a perfect fall day last Sunday friends and I went to Wave Hill. One of my friends is a keen gardener and had planned the day so we\u2019d go to a lecture in Wave Hill House (1843) being given by her friends and then walk around the 28-acre Riverdale estate. It has horticultural gardens and overlooks the Hudson.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I belong to Stubbs, a free service of the AMC movie chain. The purpose is to lure in customers. Every Tuesday in any AMC movie house you can see any movie for $6. Even at that low price, I want to warn you. Ad Astra<\/strong> is a ghastly movie. I went, noble me, because a gay pal has a crush on Brad Pitt. It\u2019s a guy movie: lots of wheels, lots of futurist jeeps plowing across Mars or was it Saturn. Poor Brad, loaded down in his immaculate astronaut suit was searching for his father, a boring old duffer who had disappeared in space. Brad Pitt was the main and practically only character and producer. It\u2019s a\u00a0 <\/span>film with lots of special effects and Hollywood profound thoughts.<\/i><\/p>\n

Graphic Lessons: <\/i>NYPD Detective Steve Kulchek is assigned the murder case at the prestigious Windsor School. What\u2019s bugging him? His partner being stabbed ? His hated boss, Captain Dick Holbrook, being a trustee of the Windsor School?\u00a0 <\/span>Losing his girlfriend to Holbrook?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
