Behemoth Meat

     This week a pair of grounded fantasies with people living their own realities.

     An Italian noble uses mercenaries to retake his city. In order to spur on his troops, he promises them 24 hours free reign to plunder as they see fit. Being as that is a stupid promise, it doesn't go well and soon the noble has the mercenaries routed from the city without their promised loot. Lost and without direction, some of them reform into a bandit group led by Martin and a statue of St. Martin. Soon they will have new home, riches, and the betrothed of one of their betrayers. As tensions rise soon nothing will stop the Flesh and Blood (stylized Flesh + Blood) from running through the streets in Paul Verhoeven's first English language film.
     Justin Playfair has spent his life fighting the system's abuses as a judge. After the death of his wife, he begins to believe himself Sherlock Holmes. In order to gain control of Justin's money, his brother tries to have him committed under the care of Doctor Mildred Watson. Soon the pair find themselves racing through New York in a desperate effort to stop the king of crime, and probably only imaginary, Moriarty. A rich cast of character actors and the makers of The Lion and Winter wonder if They Might Be Giants after all.
     All that and Dave forgets things, Kevin looks in on his favorite archeology professor, and Tyler has dreams about a nail salon. Join us, won't you?
