Today we have our first and only Double Daily Cinema. I couldn't choose which one I wanted to see more, so I'll leave it up to you. The first choice is D.O.A., which is about a man who has to track down his own killer after being given a slow-acting poison. The second film is The Bigamist, which comes on late so DVR it if this is the one you choose. In this movie, O'Brien plays a bigamist whose first wife discovers his dark secret--another wife and family in a different city. Much like 90% of the rest of the month, I had a really hard time narrowing it down to the two movies I chose. A close runner-up was An Act of Murder, which is premiering today about a judge whose wife suffers from terminal brain cancer. This forces him to consider the concept of a mercy killing as a way to bring her relief. All in all, sounds like a great day for suspense/drama buffs. Today's Twitter tags are #OBrienTCM and #atvobrien. See you tomorrow!
