DAILY CALL SHEET: SEPTEMBER 10, 2021

Blood Link (1982) A tale of separated Siamese twins, one of whom is a murderer. Good for a fix of Michael Moriarty's patented weirdness. TIL: Some speculate the apostles Thomas and Matthew were twins. There's no proof though other than Thomas' name means twin in Greek and Hebrew.

Dad Rock Diary: David Bowie - Let's Dance (1983) Some good singles and Nile Rodgers production is flawless as usual, but disco Bowie will never be my go-to. Laudable Lyrics: (God and man) no confession (God and man) no religion (God and man) I don't believe in modern love.

NOTE: Yes, I know there's a way to interpret the lyrics as anti-religion, but they've always made more sense to me as a rebuke to modernism's rejection of tradition.
