2013: A Look Back

12/30/2013

 
Picture


Well, that's another year done and dusted. I rarely get too personal on this blog, but as this time of year tends to lead one to contemplation, perhaps you'll forgive me a bit of indulgent navel gazing. 2013 ended up being a bit of a rough year for me, in some respects. First, my baby son, Kenji, went through two surgeries - with one more, the biggie, still to come in early 2014. Fortunately, he came through them both like a champ and is doing great, with an excellent prognosis, but the stress of the overall experience surely shaved a few years off my life. This, coupled with my dear Grandma Mary passing away around Thanksgiving, made the past year a bit of an emotional roller coaster. My grandmother lived a good, long life (she was almost 90) and I feel lucky to have spent a lot of time with her over the years, and her death wasn't unexpected...but it was still a blow. These events, along with a busier-than-ever teaching schedule, have sapped some of my energy to write on this blog.  I didn't fare too badly in the end, managing to scrape out 26 posts on this main page (not counting this one), plus 9 book reviews on my Books page, and a few more on my TV page. Not too shabby for my first full calendar year of blogging, but a far cry from what I had intended. I had hoped to write much more, but that's how things panned out. Best laid plans, and all that.

But the year definitely had many upsides as well, and I feel blessed in many ways. At 46 years old, I'm a wee bit paunchier and slower than before, but still remain generally hale and hearty, and haven't lost that bounce in my step that characterized my younger days. I'm lucky to have a great job (with the added bonus of a cool, hands-off boss) that I not only continue to enjoy but which allows me plenty of time off during university holidays, a rare gift indeed. Other than my late grandmother, my wonderful family (and equally wonderful in-laws) continued to hang in there and are doing well, for which I'm most thankful. My friends at home and abroad also prospered in 2013; I was especially gratified to see my longtime best bud, Clayton (who not only created the masthead and general design for most of this site, but maintains his own fabulously-varied and educational blog at Claytonology) make a much-needed move from a cold, inhospitable life in a west coast big city, to the slower pace and more human scale of small town living in the rural midwest, which has proven to be a life-altering, soul-enriching experience for him.

I'm also fortunate enough to have a lovely, kind and patient wife, who not only accepts my movie fixation, book, DVD and Blu-Ray buying habits and occasional late night blogging hours, but also even joins me in my old movie viewings, time permitting. And most of all, having Kenji in our lives has in all other respects been an absolute joy, his mere presence brightening not only our lives but those of my parents and other friends and relatives. While fatherhood has added a myriad stresses and worries to my life (and yes, some sleepless nights), it has also changed it for the better in so many other ways. Watching him grow and develop has been, simply put, fantastic. So far, his interest leans more to books than movies or TV (he's a big Dr. Seuss fan), but I'm working on him. He's showing a gratifying, burgeoning interest in The Muppets, and occasionally will sit still for Tom & Jerry and Moomin cartoons, so all is well on that front. It's early days yet...I can't wait to introduce him to the Three Stooges, Bugs Bunny, Tarzan, cowboy movies and Godzilla, to name just a few. Fun stuff to come in the future, to be sure.

It's that time of year - grab someone you love and give 'em a smooch!

To get back to movies, and blogging, 2013 saw me participate in a few blogathons which proved very rewarding. I was pleased to take part in both the Classic Movie Blog Association's Fabulous Films of the 40s Blogathon in February, as well as Patti's first (and very successful) blogathon at They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To, celebrating John Garfield's 100th Birthday, in March. July also saw me contribute a lengthy love letter to Route 66 for the Me-TV Summer of Classic TV Blogathon, sponsored by the Classic TV Blog Association. And finally, I was glad to add my two cents to the Hammer Horror Blogathon, hosted by Rick at Classic TV and Film Cafe. There were several other blogathons I was tempted to join, but in the end, I decided discretion was the better part of valor, and opted out rather than stretch myself too thin. The deadlines blogathons bring can be a very helpful motivation, but there were times when I had my fill of stress and obligations and chose to pare things back instead. It's been less than two years since I started this blog, but overall I'm still finding it an enjoyable creative outlet, if always challenging.

PictureJACK REACHER, easily one of 2013's most satisfying movies.
I still found time to watch a goodly amount of movies last year, some even - marvel of marvels! - at the theater. A few newer releases that I found noteworthy include The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (many complained about the film's excesses, but I lapped all that Middle Earth fantasy goodness up);   Jack Reacher, writer/director Christopher McQuarrie's nimble, gritty adaptation of Lee Child's series of bestselling novels, the sleeper hit of the year for me: an intelligent, lean-and-mean throwback to pre-CGI, 70s muscular action-thriller filmmaking; and Guillermo del Toro's gleeful giant robots vs. giant monsters smash up, Pacific Rim, arguably the most fun I've had at the multiplex in a long, long time, expertly tapping into my inner 12-year-old. Other new releases I enjoyed on the big screen or at home on Blu-Ray, despite their flaws, were the visually striking and imaginative sci-fi gem, Oblivion;  blockbusters Man of Steel (lots of good, epic stuff, but not enough of Kevin Costner's Pa Kent for my liking) and Star Trek Into Darkness (a questionable reworking of The Wrath of Khan, but featuring a very game cast as younger versions of the classic Enterprise crew, all but overshadowed by a wonderfully menacing performance from the ubiquitous and very talented Benedict Cumberbatch); and Cabin in the Woods, a very clever riff on horror movie cliches. More entertaining popcorn viewing included the schlocky but very fun Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, the equal parts harrowing and swaggeringly cool Django Unchained, the well-done but ultimately rather depressing "found footage" teen superhero drama, Chronicle, and the in-name-only theatrical reboot of the classic 70s UK crime drama The Sweeney, the latter bolstered by superlative action scenes and an effective team-up of growling, graying lion Ray Winstone and sullen punk Ben Drew, as rough cops out to bring down the bad guys.

2013 was a stellar year for Blu-Ray and DVD releases (well, DVD-R, anyway). Amongst too many excellent titles released, I managed to snag for my collection the westerns Shane (gloriously restored in HD), High Plains Drifter and Joe Kidd; Olive Films' very nice release of John Ford's endlessly charming classic, The Quiet Man (surely the best that film has ever looked on home video)
; miscellaneous Hitchcock gems like Rear Window, The Birds, Vertigo, Rope and Frenzy; and the Japanese release of my beloved John Wayne safari romp, Hatari! (about which more shall be coming soon, hopefully in January). Thanks to the kindness of my film historian pal Stuart Galbraith IV (check out his new site, World Cinema Paradise), I was also able to borrow and watch stuff like The Jayhawkers, Death Hunt, Shout at the Devil, Escape from Zahrain, The Fly, Cinerama South Seas Adventure and many more. There were also discoveries aplenty from Warner Archives Made On Demand DVD-R service, with several juicy acquisitions arriving at the Flugel homestead, such as the gorgeously colorful Dick Powell - Debbie Reynolds comedy, Susan Slept Here, the Cornel Wilde-directed end-of-the-world pic, No Blade of Grass, and a slew of Hollywood B mystery series collections, featuring such luminaries as The Saint, The Falcon, Philo Vance, Perry Mason, Nick Carter and the (new to me) "Fast" trilogy (Fast Company, Fast and Loose, Fast and Furious) featuring husband-and-wife bookseller sleuths, Joel and Garda Sloane. These are just the tip of the iceberg, with lots of goodies left to dig into in the coming months.

Which leads me finally to yet another positive from the past year - all the great people I've "met" through this endeavor, fellow bloggers and dedicated blog readers who've made it a habit to regularly stop by this little corner of the internet. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank those who've given me support and encouragement from the start, like Colin, whose erudite blog, Riding the High Country, went through a well-deserved explosion of interest and commentary over the past year; the tireless, bon vivant Sergio of Tipping My Fedora; the ever-cheerful Ruth from Silver Screenings (she of the signature royal "we"); and the aforementioned Clayton. Also heartfelt felicitations go out to more recent regulars or otherwise periodic commenters, like Kevin, from Kevin's Movie Corner, who seems to have met more famous actors and Hollywood personalities than anyone else I know; John at Pretty Sinister Books, who introduced me to so many forgotten or little-known authors of mystery fiction; Prashant from Chess, Comics, Crosswords, Books, Music, Cinema, who mixes in fascinating reflections on Indian culture and daily life with his many reviews; Patti
from They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To, whose passion and enthusiasm for classic Hollywood actors and actresses is contagious; Toby at the great 50 Westerns from the 50s (can't wait for the book!); the indefatigable Laura at Laura's Miscellaneous Musings; Caftan Woman, who always displays great taste in movies; Becky from Classic Becky's Brain Food, who made a welcome recent return to blogging; the very busy and always witty Ivan from Thrilling Days of Yesteryear; Ruth, who covers the new movie scene at her lively blog, Flix Chatter; and the effervescent Dorian TB from Tales of the Easily Distracted, just to round up the usual suspects. Thanks also to Todd Mason of Sweet Freedom fame for frequently linking to my posts on his weekly Forgotten A / V Tuesdays Round-ups, without any prodding from me.  And finally, my sincere thanks to all of the many others who've taken the time to leave comments on my various ramblings. Your feedback is always welcome, and much appreciated.

So roll on 2014! I have some fun stuff planned for the blog in the new year, but whatever ups and downs the coming months hold, I promise to keep on truckin', and post more frequently
.

Happy New Year to everyone, and thanks for reading!

Jeff, thanks for a very well-written post and especially for sharing the lovely picture with your cute little son. Children are a perennial source of joy no matter how young or old they are. I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. Grandparents are more like parents and it is a privilege to be able to spend time with them. Thank you also for the kind words about my blog; it is much appreciated. Jeff, I wish you, your wife, and lil Kenji much joy, peace, and happiness in 2014!

Jeff

Thank you for the kind words and well wishes, Prashant...and so very sorry for getting your name wrong the first time out (fixed it now). Guess I was getting cross-eyed from too much computer time. Anyway, best wishes to you and your family, too! As always, I appreciate you coming by!

Jeff, I'm honored that you included my blog in your list of favorites! I've been away, but I'm back now and raring to go. I really liked your personal notes...makes me feel that I know you that much better. I too had surgeries to turn gray for when both my sons were babies. You and your darling will be in my prayers. Thanks for such an enjoyable read. Happy New Year, Jeff!

Jeff

Much appreciated, Becky! Sorry to hear that you also went through the awfulness of surgeries when your children were young. It sounds like everything worked out well for them, which makes me very glad. Thank you for the kind wishes re: Kenji, and I hope you find blogging in 2014 a fun and rejuvenating experience rather than a chore.

You've certainly had a busy year with one thing and another Jeff, and my sincere condolences on your loss.

Through it all though you managed to maintain the high quality content of this site and it remains a real pleasure to visit it.

So here's to 2014 Jeff, may it be a good one for you.

Jeff

Thanks as always, Colin, for the kind words and also your strong support of this blog, taking the time to visit here during what I know is your own very busy schedule. Best wishes to you to as well in 2014!

What a lovely post, Jeff. It was nice to see a photo of you and your beautiful little boy and to know a bit more about you, on both a personal and blogging level. I had no idea you had other blogs, but now that I know about them, I will be checking them out.

First of all, I'm so glad Kenji has successfully come through two surgeries. I will keep him (and you and your wife) in my prayers as he faces his next one. (If you are not a praying man, I trust that you will not take offense, but that you will recognize the intent of my heart.)

While physically draining, those high-maintenance, demanding days of parenting little ones are also some of the best days of our lives. I do love my times with my young adult kids, but I really miss those wonder-filled days of the toddler years. So, even though you are probably exhausted every day of your life---cherish every single minute. All too soon, that precious little boy will be grown up, and you'll be longing to turn the clock back. (I want to go back to the 90's as much as I want to breathe!)

So sorry to hear about your grandmother's passing. I lost all 4 of my grands between 1986 and 2000, and I still miss each of them even now. They were a huge, wonderful part of my life, just as your Grandma Mary was to you. How blessed you and I both were to have had such wonderful grandparents...and to have them for as long as we did!

Finally, thank you for your kind comments about my blog. I'm glad to have made your acquaintance through this great big world of blogging.

Happy new year,
Patti

Jeff

I appreciate your reply very much, Patti! While not myself a religious man, I am not offended in the least by your offer of prayers for Kenji and welcome them gladly. Thanks also for sharing your sentiments about cherishing the time when my son is an infant. I have heard those feelings expressed by others and so have been doing my best to enjoy this period despite the hectic and stressful times.

Sorry to hear of your grandparents' passing...for most of us, they are special folk in our lives and definitely leave a hole when they're gone. My dad's parents both died early in 2012, and my dear uncle Al died suddenly and too young at age 61 at the end of 2011...so all told it's been a rough couple of years for our family. Here's wishing 2014 will be a great one, anyway!

Best wishes to you and yours Patti and glad to see you back to enjoying blogging again!

Jeff, that photo of you and your little boy is adorable. He is SO CUTE! Here's hoping that the upcoming surgery will be smooth and free of complications.

2013 sounds like it was an eventful year for you, and I hope 2014 brings you and your family health and happiness.

Of course, I'm looking forward to more of your blog posts, when you're able. You always give a reader her money's worth. :)

Jeff
1/3/2014 11:45:32 am

Thank you, Ruth - he IS very cute...but then, I'm biased. :) The well wishes for Kenji are much appreciated and so are the very nice words about this blog. Thank you for regularly stopping by and actually reading the thing! I'll do my best to keep delivering the goods in the new year.

I appreciated your candor about Kenzi, his health difficulties, the stress and fear it brought, and the overpowering awesomeness of fatherhood that seems to have triumphed over all the troubles and worries. Wishing you a 2014 as worry free as possible and one filled with as many fantastic movie moments as one can cram into 365 days.

Jeff
1/3/2014 11:48:45 am

Sincere thanks for the comment and kind wishes, John! I don't know the details but I noted from some comments you made on your own blog that 2013 perhaps was a tough one for you, too. I hope you are doing well and that the new year is much brighter and trouble-free for you as well. And thanks for the important work you do spotlighting all those interesting authors that time has seemingly forgot.

Parenting tip: Classic Disney is a great way to introduce the little ones to the voices of the character greats of yesteryear. It gets repaid in unexpected ways. The movies I saw at the theatre this year were arranged by my daughter (now 23). I found real pleasure in "The Hobbit" and had a ball at "Pacific Rim".

PS: Kenji looks like a real cutie. I bet he wraps those nurses right around his little finger.

Jeff
1/5/2014 01:23:19 am

Thank you for the parenting advice, Caftan Woman, and the nice comments re: Kenji! I have several Disney animated classics on tap for when he's a bit older. And yes, the little guy was a big hit with all the nurses in the pediatric ward during his nearly 2 month stay last summer.

Hi Jeff! Just caught up with your look back at last year and especially want to say I'm so glad your little boy has done well -- sending my best wishes for the next surgery!!!

Thank you also for the kind mention! Getting to know other classic film fans is the best part of being a blogger. :) Here's to a happy and especially healthy 2014, most of all for Kenji.

Best wishes,
Laura

Jeff
1/13/2014 11:54:42 am

Thank you kindly, Laura! Kenji's got one more hurdle to go through in a few more weeks and then hopefully things will be smooth sailing from there on out. Wishing you a happy, healthy and movie-filled 2014 as well, and look forward to reading more of your reviews!

It is impressive you can maintain the blog, I barely have time to see movies, much less write intelligently and entertainingly about them! I am sure 2014 will be a great year for you and your family, starting with the Seahawks winning the Superbowl!

Jeff
1/27/2014 07:39:49 am

That's very kind of you to say, Neil! Thanks to you as well for taking the time to stop by and reading this thing, not to mention frequently commenting. Wishing you and yours all the best in 2014 and beyond!
