Haines His Way

Thank you George.

The composers I referenced are all foreign-born - only Desplat has written for American films (The Girl In The Pearl Earring, Syriana).  Pascal Esteve wrote a great score for Patrice Leconte's Intimate Confessions, Krishna Levi wrote the faboo background score to Francois Ozon's 8 Women, and Mr. Rombi has written some glorious scores all to French films, including Ozon's latest, Angel.

Good Evening!

I'm back from a wonderful day spent with Ma and Son Murphy.  We started at Levain, walked across Central Park, around the Upper East Side for a bit, down Fifth Avenue, spent some time in Takashimaya, then back over to Hell's Kitchen to pick up some music at Binder Casting* (where I also took the time to introduce DR Cason to some of the casting agents and associtates there), and then back home.

*bk - Someone, sometime from Binder Casting will be seeing The Brain this week - they're still coordinating schedules, but they promised that one if not two of them will see the show this week.

**And while walking through Rockefeller Center, I stopped into Teuscher Chocolates to pick up a small box of Champagne Truffles... For the folks at Binder Casting.  

I am not sure which part of GORILLA AT LARGE was more unsettling....the revelation of the true killer or Cameron Mitchell with VERY blond hair.

At long last I've made it to page eleven.

bk - I think DR Noel was just saying that because his show performs this weekend, today is their company's day off.  Which is done according to the AEA rules.  That's all.  He was "just sayin'", not "accusin'".

As for any NYMF shows not following the work-week rule, well, that would be VERY hard to do with Equity stage managers and actors involved.  And if that rule had been breached, well, then the whole company would have had the "option" to leave the production then and there.

*However, like DR SWW's work-week contract, the AEA contract also has a similar clause.  As long as one full-day off is provided within a seven-day period, it is possibly to work 12 days in a row.  -And I've worked on shows where that has been the case many times.  That scenario usually comes into play during tech weeks, or when a major holiday happens to break up the standard work-week in the middle.

DR Jane - Wonderful news about your Miracle Goofus.

   Thank you.

I see you have been buys being the best walking tour guide in New York.

Thanks DR 3D....I have never added a comment, so I think that can be optional.  Appreciate the help!  

I voted for you....and said I love the people who work there, they always make my day

Joanne Worley - does she swing her pearls in THE DROWSY CHAPERONE?

YES!


*And I saw her yesterday at the Broadway Cares Flea Market - they had a few strands of her pearls for sale and at the silent auction.  She even swung them around for the "winners", and I believe I saw her giving a lesson to one or two them too.

Cilla, how is Callie today?

Her eye still looked a little sore this morning. At noon I decided to come home and check one more time before calling the vet (I told Callie in the morning if it didn't get better she had to go to the doctor) Lo and behold, it was looking fine when I came home.  It's a titch red around the edges right now, but not running at all, so I think she's getting over it.

Browsing around on other sites, I've just come across what has to be one of the least tasteful advertising lines ever.

"Kotex fits.  Period."

 

LOL, not if you've ever had the products that don't fit...then it sounds pretty good.

That last sentence came out wrong.  But you know what i meant.

I'll be at FJL's opening....that doesn't sound good does it, lol. But can't wait!

Champagne truffles are the perfect accessory for capri pants.

  LOL!!

Do you think leopard print capris are a little too much or just very stylish?   And what sort of heels would you wear with them?
