My completely unqualified and inexperienced thoughts:

Did you literally just copy and paste that from the IMDb plot summary?

If they ever make a movie about William Henry Harrison, "31 Days of His Presidency" would be an interesting title.

Today in "what the IMDb thinks they're best known for":
Keegan-Michael Key: MADtv
Carlton Cuse: Writer, San Andreas
Marcel Marceau: Self, La constellation Jodorowsky
Bob Costas: Self, BASEketball

Today in "insultingly easy J6 clues":
Foreign Words & Phrases: Of bon mot, bon vivant or bon bon, it's the French phrase for a clever remark
Movie Stars: This co-star of "The Aviator" played the title role in 2015's "Carol"
A Spot of Silent T: In TV ads, Henry Winkler pitched viewers on a "reverse" one of these
"C" All

Wikipedia says Johann Sebastian Bach.

I think he won't use it for identity theft purposes, since if you were going to steal someone's identity, literally anybody would be better than Kevin Federline.

In fairness, I'm not sure you could get away with putting that on YouTube.

I'd be happy if TCM showed one or two of them again on Underground. As it is, the only movie of his I've seen is "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls."

My local classical station is named after 44: KBAQ.

I've just been doing Spanish, since I assume that learning one language at a time is difficult enough, and trying more than one would be endlessly confusing. (Not to mention harder to maintain streaks in.)

Today in "what the IMDb thinks they're best known for":
Gary Oldman: The Dark Knight Rises
Russ Meyer: Director, Up!
Kevin Federline: Self, The Teen Choice Awards 2006
Johann Sebastian Bach: Soundtrack, The Godfather

Recently saw "Hard Ticket to Hawaii," which isn't so much a movie as it is an excuse for tits and action. But there is this scene, which is a thing beauty:

As somebody who's been studying Spanish lately (well, using Duolingo, which isn't quite as great a teacher as a human, I think), I did embarrassingly bad in the NFL en Espanol category, but at least I knew that the Bears would be osos and the Ravens were cuervos.

Today in "what the IMDb thinks they're best known for":
William Hurt: Into the Wild
Michael Rapaport: The 6th Day
John de Lancie: Reign Over Me
Fred Rogers: Actor, Bowling for Columbine

Last Week Tonight - March 19, 2017

Yep, the silent movie "The Crowd."

When I saw "The Matrix" for the first time in years a while back, I had the same thought: It feels like a pilot rather than a movie. I could imagine that working better than the reboot/sequel/whatever they're doing with it. Maybe if the Wachowskis and Netflix weren't too busy with "Sense8," they could have pulled it

I also enjoyed "Doomsday," mostly on a "B-movie with a budget" level.

Today in "what the IMDb thinks they're best known for":
Harvey Weinstein: Producer, Gangs of New York
Casey Anthony: Self, Owned & Operated
Richard Williams: Animation Department, The Princess and the Cobbler
