While I prepared lunch, I listened to the running commentary on the WR: MYSTERIES OF THE ORGANISM DVD. The commentary does help sort out the baffling collection of images that form this movie collage, but it gets so deep into socialist/communist explanations that I just turned it off. Who cares?

I watched the first episode on the fourth disc in THE CLOSER set. This was the one with the murder of a teenager after he had provided the DA with evidence that might release from jail a prisoner accused on robbery and murder.

This is also the episode where Brenda was embarrassed in the squad room by Pope's ex-wife.

Next came an episode from disc 5 in the ANGEL, Season 4 set. In this one, Gun and Gwen go to save a little girl, but it's really about something else entirely. And Cordy's little ruse gets found out, too (about time, I say)!

I watched the end of THE YELLOW ROLLS ROYCE which I had started last night. I've always found the third installment in the movie the least interesting of the three though Sharif is certainly glamorous to look at.

Anyway, I enjoyed revisiting this film once again.

And because I was in the mood for mystery, I put in HERCULE POIROT'S CHRISTMAS. This was one of the few Agatha Christie books in which I identified the correct murderer before I got to the end of the book, and on film, it's even easier to spot the guilty party. Still entertaining, but this is one of those times where Christie just couldn't commit the murder right before your eyes and get away with making you look elsewhere while she was doing it.

Now, if only she had done this to begin with (i.e. having someone else drive her around instead of endangering others by driving drunk) she wouldn't be in this mess in the first place. I mean, it's not like she couldn't afford a driver!

I wish they would put her in with the other inmates so she could experience life in the "real world"!

Music to my ears! America's favorite celebutramp not! is back to the hoosegaw! I wonder how much she lost in that poor investment. I hope the paper chase/investigation reveals all the sleazebags in this financial transaction that she paid off.

Well, if the initial news reports are true, there's gonna be - there better be(!) - some turnover in the L.A. Sheriff's office.

That's also sort of puzzling. And funny. According to some other reports, she actually has TWO personal drivers. TWO!?!?!?!?!

One wants to feel sorry for Paris Hilton.

One does.

But, ulitmately, one doesn't.

Now, I don't know why I should feel sorry for a Hotel in Paris! I would not even feel sorry for "mine"!

The Dream-O-Matic 6000 does tell us that dreams of having possessions stolen is a sign that we are being a bit too free with our talents or other life gifts.

"Living" with other inmates, for all I know, definitely is NOT the "real world" either... It's fair to see, at last, that she is treated like anyone else!

I agree that it's the slowest-moving segment. I don't know whether it's because I feel I've seen Bergman saving orphans before (in "Inn of the Sixth Happiness") or whether it's the idea of Sharif settling for Bergman when he could've had Steisand.

Still....I think I've napped a bit during this section.

YET...it's that awesome closing few minutes I'm totally fond of as the car embarks upon a new journey and that Ortolani score swells triumphantly with the main theme for "The Yellow Rolls-Royce"!

I read that about Isiah Washington in my newspaper this morning and a somewhat longer article on the net later this morning. I don't think he should have been surprised that this happened. Also, the season ending episode left his fate very up-in-the-air anyway.

He was my least favorite character....not only for the arrogance of the character, but for the off-camera comments about T.R. Knight which Knight has never acknowledged to have been settled amicably (and about which Katherine Heigl suggested that Washington needed to keep his mouth shut), and for the way the character dumped Christina in the last episode.
