I can't call it tonight, since it's almost after midnight, but it was the night for the second episode of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Two Towers, big screen, excellent quality imagery, big sound at the Theatre, a re-run of the long version of the trilogy. After all these years, it really still works. This movie is just so dark and full of parallels to the most awful parts of the 20th century, only populated by orcs, dragons and wizards, instead of dictators, nazi goons and bombs. It also has moments, the ones without demons and monsters, however, that appear almost documentary, like you're really there. The humans at least are quite believable.

Fortunately, our plucky crew of misfit humans, hobbits and elves manages to survive the day and continue until the final climax in the third episode. We saw it back when it was new and then on video, and its gloom and hope resonate even more now.
