  • R.I.P. Jean-Luc Godard, 91, director of "Breathless" (1960)

    Plenty of obits to choose from.

    I saw "Hail Mary" (1985) when it came out, though I didn't quite understand the fuss.

    For those who don't know, it's a modern retelling of the virgin birth.

    From Wikipedia:

    "Marie, a student, works at her father's Swiss gas station and plays basketball for a local team; she claims to be a virgin and maintains a chaste relationship with her boyfriend Joseph, a taxi cab driver and college dropout..."
