Hi. I saw Most Wanted Man this week and recommend it.

As you film fans probably know, it was Philip Seymour Hoffman's final film and some say his best performance ever. I don't know about that. I always love his performances. But he was damned good in this film. His fans will love it, I think.

If anyone has seen it, I would love your thoughts on who was "the most wanted man."

Enjoy.

be it Netflix, a network airing or Comcast On Demand. Some great person in my life who got tired of watching TV with me bought me a Netflix subscription and a large screen TV set. I probably would not have done it for myself, at least not until my TV wore out entirely.

But, once you see something on a commercial screen, you cannot help but wonder if everything will come across just as well on the smaller screen. For your sake, I hope at least his performance does. What a loss to the arts his death was.

4. Not that I recall. I was thinking more of seeing Hoffman than of the landscape.

If you like him, I am sure you will enjoy it, no matter what size screen you view it on.
