During the pandemic, I needed a dentist, and my usual clinic has been the NYU clinic on East 24th Street. Well, between 2020 and 2022, the clinic, as well as the one at Columbia University, was closed. It was frustrating, but I had no options and I stopped worrying about the situation. Now that the clinics are open, I need to see a dentist.

The age rating for the 1964 “Mary Poppins” has been increased in the U.K. due to “discriminatory language.”

On Friday, the British Board of Film Classification upped the Disney movie’s cinema rating from U, meaning it contained “no material likely to offend or harm,” to PG for “discriminatory language.”

In a statement to Variety, a BBFC spokesperson said that the film “includes two uses of the discriminatory term ‘hottentots’. While ‘Mary Poppins’ has a historical context, the use of discriminatory language is not condemned, and ultimately exceeds our guidelines for acceptable language at U. We therefore classified the film PG for discriminatory language.”
The word is a racially insensitive term for the Khoekhoe, an indigenous group in South Africa. The BBFC further explained that the word is used in the film by Admiral Boom (Reginald Owen), including when referring to the chimney sweeps whose faces are covered in soot.

Years ago, I took my folks to Memphis for a visit. My mother’s only comment after seeing Elvis’s house, the plane with gold faucets, the Graceland compound, the gold and platinum records, and the hall of white jumpsuits was, “I never knew he made so many movies.”

However, even though she came to work on Monday, she didn't take her food with her.  On Tuesday, I mentioned that it was still in the fridge and she said she would get it that night.  She didn't!  I didn't remind her again (not my job) and that bag of food stayed the fridge for more than three, count 'em, THREE weeks! :o I finally threw it out when she went on vacation.

Thanks for sharing this. What do you think of the movies that preceded it, Rope and Under Capricorn? I have a fondness for these Transatlantic Pictures outings, both because of the family history connection and the interesting use of very long takes.

I hated Under Capricorn the first time I saw it. I liked it much more the second time, but it is flawed by a mediocre script.

Love Rope for the exercise it is. Plus, the best Hitchcock cameo of all.

But another woman on the train had an phone cord so between us we helped them to  get their phones charged up

Very nice, Vixmom.

But not at all upset about the delay because everyone behaved so pleasantly

That can make all the difference in the world.

Well, once again, DR vixmom, you had a tale to tell.
And told it brilliantly.

Agreed!

Spinout has the terrible song “Smorgasbord”

But Shelley’s screen dad is played by Carl Betz, and Jimmy Hawkins is in it too. It’s like a Donna Reed Show reunion!

Judges in Missouri cannot finalize a divorce if a woman is pregnant.  Where will all this end, I wonder?

I didn't know about a new film of the Musketeers, so I went to IMDB to look it up. The photos look great, the D'Artagnan very handsome and Milady de Winter quite beautiful, but the posted review sounds is if Dumas' plot wasn't enough for the screenwriters so they added more plots of their own devising. So, I went to check out the second film, and the synopsis doesn't match the second half of Dumas' wonderful novel. I'll stick with Richard Lester's two films.


Reminds me of the episode when Beaver watches the Three Musketeers movie to avoid reading the book for a book report. But he watched the Ritz Brothers version. Trouble ensues.

That's funny!

The Spinout LP has something interesting. A cover of a Bob Dylan song called Tomorrow is a Long Time. It’s not in the movie. Great Elvis vocal. At over 5 minutes, it’s the longest song Elvis ever recorded.

Apparently, George is still eating Panda Express. Certainly he never bothered to come back here.

Or maybe he's simply through coming back before the notes post.
