It's been a rather frustrating morning. I gave the cats a new Fancy Feast dish and they all refused to go near it.
After 90 minutes I rook the dishes and cleaned them. In another 10 minutes I will head for Petco, so rather than leave three starving kitties till dinner time, I offered them Fancy Feast chicken hearts and liver. Stella jumpewd on it, Thatch is debating, and Annabelle is refusing. They usually eat it right up.

I was thinking about A Christmas Carol and how wonderful George C. Scott is, second to the brilliant Alistair Sim, and I forgot to mention watching A Carol Christmas, which I must admit gets a qualified rave. I liked the cast, the score, which is funny, moving, and full of heart, but I wasn't crazy about the book. I thought it had great ideas like Marley's ghost being a DVD and the three spirits, but it never moved me. This past Christmas I watched every Christmas Carol I had - Alistair Sim, George C. Scott, Michael Hordern, Patrick Stewart, Basil Rathbone, and the Carl Davis ballet - and only George C. Scott's version moved me. To paraphrase Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, Scrooge is not as simple as he seems.

I loved Blake's ballad, BK; it's wonderful.

T.O.D.

Too many favorite movies for each actor.

I had the pleasure of seeing George C. Scott on stage in NYC in THE BOYS IN AUTUMN.

I also did a phone interview with Cary Grant when I was writing my now OOP book on movie sequels, ONE GOOD FILM DESERVES ANOTHER. We talked about the TOPPER movies.

Petco was hell. There was only one worker, a nice young lady, since the other worker was over 30 minutes late because of the transit. Well, hell, that's been the casr for some time now, so leave 30-45 minutes earlier, dumbass.

So, she was only allowing one customer in at a time, so it took me around 30 minutes to get into the store. The website assured me that Thatch's treat was in stock, and I wanted to purchase five of them. They only had two. This treat comes in three flavors - shrimp, chicken, and salmon - and he will only eat the shrimp. So, I will begin a Petco quest on Monday to find more for him.

I'm watching the rest of Night of the Shooting Stars, an Italian movie I loved when I first saw it back in the early 1980s. Somehow it doesn't hold up as well as I remembered it. But it's still a sweet look at a group of Italians toward the end of WWII who go on the road looking for Americans to protect them, but all they seem to find are Germans.

I put a sweet video on Facebook yesterday. In the evening Keith's cousin, who had loved my post, sent it back to us in an email. I suspect she hadn't meant to include us with her parents

since the thought of not being able to get out on my birthday must have been something I didn't want to deal with, I guess.

Are you not going anywhere?

You are missing my favorite version with Albert Finney. I also liked George C. Scott's performance.

Saturday afternoon greetings! We are back from great-nephew J’s drive-by birthday party. He’s 5 today and knew right away that the bill folded up in the card I made was “twenty bucks!”

Happiest of birthdays to DR Freddie!

This afternoon's epic is Luschino Visconti's The Leopard with Burt Lancaster, Claudia Cardinale and Alain Delon.
