Walk km 12,862-12,876 (9453 to go): meetup walk zigzagging from Broadway Station to 54th Ave
Movie #2215: Go Go Second Time Virgin (1969, Koji Wakamatsu)
This may have been just intended to shock but it's also mighty weird. A bunch of teens gather on an apartment rooftop on a hot summer night. First comes gang rape, then mass murder and finally the survivors commit suicide. Creepy.

Day #22,328
Walk km 12,855-12,862 (9466 km): walk from Metrotown to Gilmore stations
Movie #2213: Daydream (1964, Tetsuji Takechi)
Super weird for 1964 but then this is Japanese! It's two sexual perversions battling it out for 90 minutes. In one corner: romance - in the other: s&m. Caught in between is the poor woman who has to put up with these two men (and their two extremes). We have lots of electronic music and weird scenes shot primarily in a dentist's office and overnight in a department store. It was kinda fun but ultimately rather pointless.
Book #446: The Jugger (1965, Donald E Westlake)
This one is a bit different. There's no big caper here. Parker decides to investigate when a confederate who knows his real ID appears to be getting senile in a small Nebraska town. Better snuff him before he spills the beans. However, on arrival, Parker finds that someone has beat him to it.

Walk km 12,830-12,844 (9482 to go): Meetup walk on West Dyke Trail (Richmond)
Movie #2212: Blueprint Of Murder (1961, Kihachi Okamoto)
Super flashy directing style. I had trouble keeping up with the plot because constant subtitle reading was a hindrance to trying to keep track of all these characters. It's all about industrial espionage and the style is pure comic book.
It's amazing what you can find on YouTube. Sure beats Netflix!
Music Video #3: Butterfly Concerto (Akiko Suwanai, no orchestra named)
Sounds good. Recorded in 2009 at 50th anniversary celebration of the composaition.
A few ticks in the sound and screen has crap all over it. Looks like it was uploaded from a cheap VCD.
