I slept really late, ten-thirty, and awoke to twelve e-mails from the co-author of the long musical. The only one I felt was worth responding to was one in which he said he'd thought about two drastic suggestions I made and that they didn't work for him, but that he's willing to do some serious cutting in those two areas. I wrote him back and said that if he was not willing to come here with an open mind on Tuesday that I was canceling the session and we'd just do the show with whatever cuts he wanted. I reminded him that I've been asking for these drastic things for six months and every time this was his answer - well, it still doesn't work and if he cannot see that drastic measures are needed, then he will never have a show and I'll stage the reading and be done.

Just tell him: "You cut what you love."

It must be Marilyn Cooper on my DVD - because it surely isn't Marcia Lewis.

And now I will play some CD's.

And I just finished watching tonight's episode of "The Amazing Race"...

When are they going to have a swimming challenge?

I am hoping March will be a better month...

Congrats to bk and Druxy on the lofty perches!

Keep the good vibes for DH...

He is going to Atlanta in March for an interview at the polytech in Marietta.

And here's the full cover with the flap wraparound on the right.

Now it just looks like you're sitting on an amputee.

Grant did a great job - especially with "reconstructing" the chair and rig.

yes, great job!

I finished THE SCARLET CLAW when I went downstairs (after putting away the already folded laundry and cleaning my bathroom, the usual Sunday rituals).

Gerald Hamer does a fine job as his various characters in the movie.

Matt H. · « **Reply #163 on:** February 28, 2010, 07:31:31 PM »

There was an audio commentary with this film, so I started it again and listened to about 20 minutes of commentary. I had heard it before, but not for quite some time. I enjoyed it.

Matt H. · « **Reply #164 on:** February 28, 2010, 07:32:18 PM »

Then I put in the HD-DVD of PRIDE & PREJUDICE (latest film version) and watched it yet again. I always came away with a good, warm feeling after seeing it.

Matt H. · « **Reply #165 on:** February 28, 2010, 07:33:08 PM »

I ended my evening with this week's episode of SPARTACUS. Two shocking deaths this week, and I was so sorry about both of them.

Hopefully your DH will get a job somewhere warm, DakotaCelt. I know how much you dislike the cold winters.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #167 on:** February 28, 2010, 07:38:07 PM »

And now... Time to change the channel.... $:-\$

I agree... with the winter part...My knees and ankles especially dislike winter

I haven't decided yet if I'm going to do YOJIMBO on Blu-ray tomorrow or start on MATT HUSTON which will take me three days to complete.

And I'm expecting GENTLEMEN BRONCOS from Fox on Blu-ray this week at some point (it comes out Tuesday), so that may have something to do with my plans and schedule, too.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #171 on:** February 28, 2010, 07:49:05 PM »

They are predicting major flooding here again this year.... I am so excited.... NOT!

Matt H. · « **Reply #172 on:** February 28, 2010, 07:51:43 PM »

I guess I'll finish up some things in the office and then head downstairs to bed.

Good night!

Wonder if CNN will get arrested again for violating the rules concerning the dikes...

I watched SHE'S BACK ON BROADWAY this evening.

It's one of the better color transfers from the Warner Archive.

Although I didn't think the musical numbers were anything special, I did enjoy the picture.

Actually, it surprised me. I thought it was going to be a musical comedy, but it was a drama about a musical.

I was also surprised that Gene Nelson, who was billed second to Virginia Mayo, had so little to do.

Bob Hilliard, who co-wrote the songs, was once (very briefly) a publicity client, but it was so long ago that I don't recall much about him.

Saw an old movie last week. I had not seen this movie in years but I have seen several stage renditions of it. I watched THE CHILDREN'S HOUR with Shirley MacLaine and Audrey Hepburn. It also had a very young James Garner.

I thought it was well done.

Hmmm... I wonder if the soundtrack to "The Children's Hour" is available anywhere?

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #177 on:** February 28, 2010, 08:18:40 PM »

Well... It was available.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #178 on:** February 28, 2010, 08:20:25 PM »

I have been relatively impressed with THISTV... The films have been really crisp and clear.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #179 on:** February 28, 2010, 08:20:57 PM »

Granted there are some real bombs among the gems...
