One, Two, Three was absolutely incredible last night.

I know I appreciated many of the lines and "bits" WAY more than ever before. Every little thing is etched to perfection, Cagney is a force of nature, and the movie couldn't possibly look any better than it did projected in 4K on the 38-foot-wide screen.

(Not everything shown there is "in" 4K, but this theater is fine-tuned to perfection and 2K stuff is positively gorgeous as well.)

I'd forgotten this yesterday, but part of the nice memory of seeing the movie when it opened is that it was a good friend's dad who took my friend and me to see it. (Their mom was out doing something that night. They were a family I really liked, in an interesting house I really liked, and unfortunately I foolishly lost touch with them when we moved across town some months later.) After the movie his dad explained to us boys what that then-new Berlin Wall thing was all about -- and to the best of my memory, at that tender age, that was my first ever awareness of the Wall.

Yes indeed. The gentleman introducing the film mentioned that. Does Cagney also state that the making of the film was so exhausting (and not a totally pleasant experience) that that mostly accounts for his then-retirement?
Title: Re: MAI OUI? OUI MAI!
Post by: ChasSmith on May 01, 2024, 06:58:03 AM
It's interesting, too, because Bucholz is, himself, something of a "force of nature" in the film.

Post by: Ron Pulliam on May 01, 2024, 06:58:37 AM
I never understood any of the hoopla over Horst Buchholz.  Oh, yes, there was "hoopla" or he would not have made a bunch of films, including "The Magnificent Seven" and "One, Two, Three."   Of course, he missed out on a few roles, such as Tony in "West Side Story" and the Omar Sharif role in "Lawrence of Arabia."

He came to Hollywood in the 50s and was labeled the "German James Dean".  Meh.

For some very odd reason, it "feels" like Friday.

Next week, my calendar is a blur.  Five appointments in the first four days.

It could not be helped, of course.  The Stemwave appointments are two of them.

Post by: Ron Pulliam on May 01, 2024, 07:15:51 AM
I don't know if I mentioned this already, but...

You may recall I live across the street from where my aunt and uncle lived from 1950 until their deaths in 2021 and 2022. 

The house is occupied, but they don't seem to own a lawn mower.  The yard is awash in dandelions.  A sea of dandelions.  All the other yards are well maintained (or immaculate!), but not this house.

It seems a bit unfriendly to walk over and complain to them, but the fact is that those yellow flowers will very shortly turn into whitish puff balls of seeds and the winds will scatter them hither, thither and yon, all of which means I'll get the bulk of them (being yon between thither and hither).

I have thought about paying someone to cut their yard, but that would be a gross violation of their rights.  Last year, the man of that house used a weed eater and cut the entire yard. 

PO'd in Johnston, I am!

I'd forgotten this yesterday, but part of the nice memory of seeing the movie when it opened is that it was a good friend's dad who took my friend and me to see it. (Their mom was out doing something that night. They were a family I really liked, in an interesting house I really liked, and unfortunately I foolishly lost touch with them when we moved across town some months later.) After the movie his dad explained to us boys what that then-new Berlin Wall thing was all about -- and to the best of my memory, at that tender age, that was my first ever awareness of the Wall.


This is very interesting.

I don't know if I mentioned this already, but...

You may recall I live across the street from where my aunt and uncle lived from 1950 until their deaths in 2021 and 2022. 

The house is occupied, but they don't seem to own a lawn mower.  The yard is awash in dandelions.  A sea of dandelions.  All the other yards are well maintained (or immaculate!), but not this house.

It seems a bit unfriendly to walk over and complain to them, but the fact is that those yellow flowers will very shortly turn into whitish puff balls of seeds and the winds will scatter them hither, thither and yon, all of which means I'll get the bulk of them (being yon between thither and hither).

I have thought about paying someone to cut their yard, but that would be a gross violation of their rights.  Last year, the man of that house used a weed eater and cut the entire yard. 

PO'd in Johnston, I am!



You have my sympathy.

DR RON PULLIAM my next door neighbor has grass that is now about 8-10 inches tall......

His car is home all day and I thought he told my brother he was a landscaper.

Last summer he bought a new electric lawn mower.  But it was his room mate that always mowed the lawn.  The room mate went to the slammer a few months ago....so maybe that has something to do with it.  I hope he's not waiting until he's released!

My Taxmaster tax person told me I shouldn't worry about the refund. Yeah . . . sure.

Well, if you can't trust your Taxmaster tax person, who can you trust. ::)

Law Day.

I know an ex-president who is unqualified to celebrate that day.

OMG, we can't get away from thinking about him.  Some crazy  has been holding up a T flag in the walking tourist area of Dublin  >:(

WTF?? :o

Dublin has been very nice.  We are basically packed for our morning drive to Belfast. I will think of DR TCB while we tour the Titanic museum.  I'll have to let my fellow travelers on our tour know about my family connection.

Nice.

I always like things like that...like the Japanese production of Pacific Overtures (ootlegbays are out there ;) ), or if there were an actual French cast recording of The Phantom of the Opera (you can only get the French release of the movie for a French recording), and there actually was a Greek soundtrack to Disney's Hercules (https://castalbums.org/recordings/-1997-Greek-Soundtrack/16035/). :)

Julius LaRosa has a song called “Stashu Pandowski.” My mom had the 45. I haven’t heard it in over 30 years. Yet I know all the lyrics. The mind is an amazing thing.
