On Sunday night, Thom and I went to see Serenity, the movie based on the excellent outer-space sci-fi series Firefly, and I liked it a lot. I’m not a sci-fi person, but of course good writing and good acting transcend genre. A while ago, Thom got me into watching Firefly on DVD, and actually, we have a few more episodes to go, which will be poignant to watch after having seen the movie. Being familiar with and invested in the characters made the movie that much more enjoyable. I even found myself holding Thom’s hand during the scary or tense parts. (I will say that I thought the violence was a bit much at times; I have a low tolerance.) Definitely check out the series and the movie. “I am a leaf on the wind. Watch how I soar.”
