Yesterday afternoon I added a little more to my memoirs. I am in the 10th grade now. In the evening I watched a DVD of the movie The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio. It paints a really good picture of life in the Midwest in the fifties and sixties. It is based on the memoirs of one of the daughters of the woman who is the leading character, played by Julianne Moore. I give it 3.5 stars. When it was over I watched the last half of the PBS documentary on the sixties, especially the pivotal year 1968. It was extremely well done. I was surprised at how strongly I still react to these reminders of how strongly I felt during those times.
