Movie Review and More

Well it has been a hectic week. I now have 6 hens broody on eggs, Incubator is 2/3 full. I am on my way to being a chicken tycoon. Well at least somebody with lots of chickens. Spent one night in the ER at Alva. Doc couldn't do much for me, but he did give me a wicked pain shot. Went to bed at 2:30 in the AM and slept till noon, got up, ate a bite and slept the rest of the afternoon, and went to bed about 10 and slept all night. Doctor at the VA did some blood work and told me to go home and keep my leg propped up. He don't seem to understand I am running a chicken ranch here. LOL
I ordered the 1974 classic "Cockfighter" starring Warren Oates, Richard Shull, Harry Stanton. From the Internet "

Storyline

Frank Mansfield has wanted to win the Cockfighter of the Year medal for ages. Frank never speaks. After shooting his mouth off one too many times then losing a champion rooster in a casual hotel room cockfight, he swore never to speak again until he's won that award... He makes a bet with old crony Jack to be settled at the upcoming meet. Frank puts his car and his trailer on the line; he loses. Jack gets the trailer, and Frank's part-time girlfriend who goes with it. Frank's long-time girlfriend Mary Elizabeth wants him to get serious and settle down. But Frank has to raise some money for a new cock - $500 - then he can form a partnership with fellow cocksman Omar Baradansky and make another try for that medal... "
I enjoyed the movie if for no other reason you don't find many movies on this sport. I have always been a Warren Oates fan from the days of long ago when he co-starred on the series "Stoney Burk" I know all you young people out there are asking who the heck is Stoney Burk. It was a series about a rodeo performer back in the early 60's. Stoney Burk was played by Jack Lord who also played Steve Garrett in the original Hawaii 5-0. Again all the young people are saying, this was a series before. Come on keep up. Anyway for content alone I give the movie "Cockfighter" two thumbs up. There was some good footage of some fights in the movie. It was a very  good movie to watch when you have your feet propped up.
