Did pretty much nothing. Just the usual routine house chores.
Watched The French Connection on DVD.
Haven't seen it in years. What a great film. Everybody thinks of the train - car chase scene. But it's pretty much the great movie from the '70s classic crime drama era. Character driven; great script and cinematography. Fantastic acting.
The DVD has been remastered in THX Surround. Fortunately, they didn't try to 'clean up' the sound. It was left 'scratchy' like the original movie - just clearer. If that makes any sense.
Anyway - keeping the sound the same matches the gritty feel of the cinematography which captured the grimy look of New York City at that time.
