Good morning, DR Tomovoz! And good morning, all! When I signed off last night, there were only 6 pages of notes, no I've just made my way through the remaining 7 pages.
Dr JRand55, yes, indeedy! MARATHON 33 was written by Miss June Havoc was based on her biography EARLY HAVOC and I believe the Broadway production starred Julie Harris. I was unfortunate to see a production in the 1970s, and I don't think it's a very good play. On the other hand, EARLY HAVOC is a wonderful book.
I've been reading this wonderful book about the Lincoln assassination, which is the only reason I knew that last Friday was the 159th anniversary of the assassnation. DRs interested in the motives behind the conspiracy to kidnap/kill Lincoln will enjoy this book. It's worh reading alone for the gripping chapter on the assassination attempt on Secretary of State Seward.
I've never heard the theory beforde that our DR Jose was to blame for CALIGULA but it's the only possible option! There was a wonderful bok written about the film, ULTIMATE PORN, by an assistant director, and the entire film sounds like the title of the book. Yes, I blame DR Jose!
