We'll be staying seated & watching telebision this 4th of July wknd., rather than going outside or enjoying the company of friends. (Why should this wknd. be any different? Chronology & calendars, poo.)
But we don't need viewing advice from the Brain Police, thank you.

If I weren't working, I'd watch a whole lotta French movies, as a gesture of gratitude to le marquis du Lafayette.
Enjoy!

The L.A. Metromedia AOR station had a "Losers Day" one Fourth (1974 or '75) & played nothing but Limey music all day &tc.
