DR TPunk, I haven't quite finished catching up on the posts from this past weekend, but I gather you have some good employment news.  So, congrats.

If you want after you watch it I can tell you the alternate ending (with spoiler space).  And the one deleted scene i noticed made a very distinct impact.

It looks as though I'm not going to get to it until next week. Thanks for the offer. If I do find I have some time to watch it today, I'll let you know.

Now I'm listening to SONDHEIM AT THE MOVIES; I think my faves are "What Can You Lose?" and "The Glamorous Life."  I'm rather proud of that.

On a sadder note, fashion designer Donald Brooks, who designed PROMISES, PROMISES and ON A CLEAR DAY died recently.

I have said on several occasions that "The Glamous Life," "What Can You Lose?" and "I Remember" are my favorite three cuts on that CD.

Donald Brooks designed all those sensational 125 outfits for Julie Andrews in STAR! and netted an Oscar nomination. Wasn't he nominated for his designs in DARLING LILI, too?

Well, sometimes "true" doesn't necessarily equate with "bad".

-Am I sensing some jealousy?

The only thing I'm suffering from is HEAT exhaustion. It is HOT here today. A quick check on the net of the weather in NYC over the next four days confirms that I won't be escaping the heat there this summer. It's going to be as steamy there as it's going to be here this weekend.

I did get to RENO 911! The running joke with Liberace's piano was very funny and sustained quite well throughout the show. Other skits weren't as inspired, and the "Weekend at Bernie's" nuptuals I just knew would not work out.

Well, the trick is to make them sound in the studio like they sound live, but make it work for the studio, if that makes any sense.  It's a different mindset for the singer, and most can adapt to it right away.  I will say that Cheneweth's Lion Tamer is sung in a completely open and honest way, in a voice I've never really heard from her since.  I wish she'd do a whole album singing the way she did on that track.

BK, have you heard her brand new solo CD...the one with "Taylor, the Latte Boy" and, as she called them, "Jesus songs?"

BK question, asked and unanswered yesterday (I thought everyday was Ask BK day!) Is there any Michel Legrand you are still seeking?

Thanks Jason and Matt. Tomorrow I am flying out early in the a.m. to Chicago. Got the big family reunion in Indiana. There's nothing like flying sick!

Question for Ask BK Day:

Who is your favorite actress from the Golden Age period of Hollywood (silents-1950).

Stanwyck? Lake? Seems like you've told us before, but now I don't recall.

My second question for ASK BK day:

Have you ever on first viewing or hearing really disliked a movie, song, or record....but as time went on, your opinion became not only favorable, but downright jubilant?

Movie definitely - The Shining.  Hated every minute of it when I saw it on opening day at the Chinese.  Have grown to really like it, though.

Can't think of a song or album.

Another boy scout has died by being struck by lightning.  

Remember when AIDS first reared its head and all the fundamentalists who claimed it was God's wrath on Gays for their "sinful" lifestyle?  

You think this spate of boy scout and scoutmaster deaths by eletrocution and lightning might be God expressing his displeasure that the Scouts have banned Gay Scoutmasters?

Still remembering odds and ends that need packing (tote umbrella is the latest remembered item).

Still, for the most part, I think I'm pretty much done with the packing.

No more wire thongs, EVER!

Love Stanwyck and Lake.  Love Joan Bennett.  Love Constance Bennett.  Love Teresa Wright.  

MBarnum, Guy thanks you and wishes you'd write an amazon review already.

I'm sure there is lots of Legrand I don't have.  I used to have a huge number of his import soundtrack LPs, very few of which are on CD except in one or two track samples (as on the four CD best of Legrand set).

Haven't heard the new Chenoweth CD.

Funny you say that Pogue, someone wrote a letter that appeared in yesterday's Daily News seriously suggesting just that thought.
