End of May! June 1 is on its way! It was a bit cooler today. I slept a lot over the past few days. Look forward to PD dance class and a movement class tomorrow. I went for a walk in the nearby park today. Made myself walk even though I felt like I was moving through molasses. Have to keep on moving!

Watched a Renoir film, The River. In an interview, Scorsese says that this is one of the best films ever made. It was good, but I'm not sure about it being one of the best. He was greatly influenced by the film which he viewed when he was about nine.

An intensely interesting documentary about Rumer Godden, the author the book that formed the basis of the film, was included on the DVD. It told a moving tale of her life and trials. Despite numerous setbacks, she persevered and wrote many novels and more. The documentary is a testament to her tenacity and unique view of life and cultures.
