    The Ladykillers (2004) ⭐ 6.2 | Comedy, Crime, Thriller 9/10 I'd forgotten how funny this movie until I watched again yesterday. It's a Coen bros. film and for reasons I don't understand, it doesn't get the respect it deserves. It's a dark comedy, but heavy on the comedy.

    Not exactly sure what it is they are selling but in my attic, I bought some very heavy-duty reinforced aluminum foil that I stapled to the rafters. It took a bunch of this foil to go from the attic floor to the attic peak and along the length of the roof. I did what I would consider a very good...
