Henry Hathaway Double Feature
A couple of excellent post-war movies directed by Henry Hathaway. Kiss of Death from 1947, and Call Northside 777 from 1948. I’ve seen both of them more than once. I like the way Hathaway’s deliberate pacing pulls the viewer along without rushing.

Red-Tailed Trouble
As I mentioned recently, there’s a hawk hanging around the neighborhood. A red-tailed hawk.
Yesterday, I heard him calling from the highest perch of the tallest tree, when another hawk joined him. If there’s a Mrs. Hawk, as far as I’m concerned they’re welcome to take up residence here. There are plenty of yummy squirrels for their dining enjoyment. Then today I saw this.
A red-tailed hawk is fighting for its life in Massachusetts, the latest predatory bird to fall victim to ingesting a controversial rodenticide.

The infrequent times I detect the presence of a mouse in the house, I use catch-and-hold traps, never poison.
