Very, very interesting about the UK release, and about The Swimmer itself.

It’s actually a bit of a mystery as to whether I saw it when it was released. I was aware of it and attracted to it, but I must not have gotten to it until who knows when. But I love the Frank Perry films, even with the mucking about with this one, and Cheever's stories. If only that original footage were available.

The Oregon Shakespeare Festival was forced to cancel many outdoor performance in August. Some of the staff lost homes in the wildfires.

DR Jane, I believe they lost their homes a few years ago. The fire was the Almeda Fire.

Sorry, I should have called the Talent fire by its correct name.  I was practically glued to my computer tracking the fire and checking on friends.  We lived on the opposite end of Ashland.

Really sad.

I remember when it was extremely rare for an outdoor show to be cancelled.  We sat through the first half of Hamlet during a storm.  We were dry under the overhang, however, the amazing actors were soaking wet.  It was funny watching them slowly change out of their costumes.  At one point the king wore a jogging suit and crown ;D

They finally called the play as it was too dangerous to do the fight scenes on the slippery stage.
