Telemarketers: Optional Responses

Jerry Seinfeld showed a classic response to a telemarketer once on his show. Today, I came across another response to a telemarketer. Check it out.

Cold Comfort Farm

Last night, Mary and I enjoyed watching Cold Comfort Farm. Not having heard of it in any way before, I went in with no expectations.

I came away loving it. Its sense of life is delightfully benevolent. The sprightly center of the story is played by Kate Beckinsale. Her performance in this film was the best I've seen in her films so far. My evaluation may be colored by the cheerfully unsinkable nature of the character she played.

If you get a chance, check it out and let me know what you think of it.
