I did not watch either of the town halls last evening. I am angry with NBC for rewarding petulant behavior.

Wasn't "The Apprentice" an NBC program? We have Mark Burnett and NBC to thank for putting the Fat Orange Slug into office, may they rot in hell.

TCB, I'm so sorry to hear about your accident.

That is one HELL of a story, BK.

CDs, not much at present. But I’ve been watching a few movies in something of a ketchup mode.

I’d been wondering about the Amicus film I, Monster, a version of Jekyll and Hyde with Lee and Cushing. I had a British DVD of it which I’d never watched, and a quick spot check a few weeks ago hadn’t really inspired me. But I did want to give it a chance, and last night the mood was right. I did enjoy it, and will keep it around or perhaps go for the upcoming Blu-ray.

I don’t engage with bullies when possible. It’s one reason I left social media. And yours, BK, just sounds like the winner of a queenly throne on Dante’s fifth or sixth layer of the Inferno.

I loved DICTION in the first film of The Producers.

TOD, continued...

Earlier this week I took out a Twilight Time Blu-ray of another film I had never seen: Scream and Scream Again. It wasn’t AT ALL what I’d expected, and for good reason. Turns out, it has never been what anyone has expected, especially considering that its three stars are Vincent Price, Christopher Lee, and Peter Cushing. And after seeing it, I was finding it such an odd choice for Twilight Time.

BUT... I kept it out because there’s a commentary on it that I wanted to hear because I was curious, so I listened to that last night (after watching I, Monster) while casually keeping an eye on the proceedings. Definitely interesting, and I found it gratifying to begin putting the pieces of the puzzle in context. And there were two puzzles: (1) what the movie is about in the first place, and (2) why it might have deserved the nice Twilight Time treatment. It was actually quite rewarding, and I’m happy to have it in my arsenal.

Laundry is in the washers, and the bed is made. I can chill out with a cuppa coffee for 25 more minutes.

Logged on to a strange computer error. Now dealing with IT. The joys of the morning.

Dunno if the repairman will come, so I can put the TV back. Maybe another Donizetti opera, if not.

If he doesn't show, ask him who he recommends when he's on vacation and you will call him to do the job.

I'm surprised to find myself no longer in Facebook jail. Thirty days should end on Sunday, the 18th.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #52 on:** October 16, 2020, 06:15:11 AM »

I haven’t tuned in for Donizetti this week, but next week is “comedy week” and there are a few interesting ones on the horizon, including a repeat of the Zeffirelli Falstaff which never gets old.

If DR jan comes back, tell her she's supposed to be in the Intermediate class!

T.O.D

Among other things, I recorded 3 movies during the past couple of days:

RANDOM HARVEST
THEY WON'T FORGET
THREE MEN ON A HORSE

I'll probably watch one or all of them this weekend.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #56 on:** October 16, 2020, 07:02:03 AM »

My costumes for A CHRISTMAS CAROL have all gotten the thumbs up - and my two interpretations have been pronounced "pissingly funny" by the directors.....whatever that means.

I think that means I should keep doing them that way.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #57 on:** October 16, 2020, 07:02:52 AM »

DR DRUXY those are all great movies to watch!

I watched ThEY WON'T FORGET last night......Claude Rains is very good.

Jrand73 · « **Reply #58 on:** October 16, 2020, 07:03:41 AM »

And THE BLACK SLEEP is OnDemand on TCM.....I always think of your play when I watch it.

Have there been any productions lately?

Druxy · « **Reply #59 on:** October 16, 2020, 07:03:47 AM »

With the pandemic, TCM is running movies that they haven't run for years (if ever):

Silents...

B Movies...

Films I've never heard of...
