Not to be confused with the San Francisco strip group G-STRINGS.

A sisterhood or fellowship gathering can thrive under this wisdom-producing lunar alignment.

I'm going to a gathering of film folk to honor the memory of a dear friend and film colorist tonight. I guess it will be a thriving gathering.

I watched the first half of CAMELOT last night, thanks to DR George.

All I can say about Gabriel Byrne is: "What were they thinking"?

And...Nathan Gunn. He was wonderful. I'd never heard him before, but I'm going to keep him on my radar. What a great voice, etc....

Shayne, I can't remember much about either episode of This Is The Life, which was some sort of religious show with half-hour dramas. In fact, the only real thing I remember is how fast they were shot - two-and-a-half days, with the next episode beginning as the last one was wrapping. My memory is that when we came in to begin, the legendary Lee Roll 'Em Sholem was wrapping his episode and I heard him say his immortal line, "Cut, print, over there" after one take.

elmore, I asked Wechter to try to get someone from Showtime there, but he's just so inundated with his work he didn't do it - certainly I don't know anyone from there. However, it need be said that the only reason Reefer Madness had its very brief off-B'way run and then was filmed was because someone on its creative team is lovers with someone at the network - it's really that simple.

I think I'll go get this errand out of the way, and then I have to go move a ton of stuff in the garage so I can get in the cabinet where the extra house paint is - they had to punch a whole in a wall when they were wiring - it was plastered yesterday (but is sober now) and today someone is supposed to paint it.

Did he do Al Jolson for the Jazz Singer?

Or maybe he was responsible for Ted Danson at the Friar's Club?

No, he just made color film look a whole lot better. And he was a sweet guy. He will be missed.

Thanks, Ginny. He passed on a few weeks ago but there was no funeral so firneds decided to get together at a later date.

I've also just realzied that this is happening tomorrow, not tonight, so I may not go. I have to be at a wedding on the other side of town close tot he same time. But maybe if I duck into the bathroom and change, I could do both...

Have you ever thought about getting a lover at the network?

JMK · « **Reply #83 on:** May 30, 2008, 10:49:48 AM »

That other Reefer Madness should join the ranks of the label that shall not be named.

Hope all venturing out to SEX AND THE CITY enjoy it more than the local reviewer did. His review in the newspaper this morning was 1 1/2 stars (out of 4). Of course, he only gave SWEENEY TODD 2 stars out of 4, so judge accordingly. I certainly do.

Whether a critic gives the fiim 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 stars will not matter because the people who see it and love it will be fans of the series and I don't think they'll be disappointed in the least. I loved the film, and on my way out, I heard a young lady saying to her friends "I cried during a lot of it." Well, so did I: it's romantic, very funny, dark, unhappy, wise. and maybe a bit silly but it works very well as a tie-up to the series. The fifth character in the series always was Manhattan, and it can be equally romantic, funny, dark, bleak, and still the only place I ever really want to live.

I'll reveal no plot points but the audience I was with, mostly women and gay men, seemed to be having a wonderful time and to be totally committed to it: at one point a woman in the audience uttered a loud, "No shit!" and at another point burst into happy applause at the resolution of a storyline. I'll give it a couple of days and go back to see it again. Now I want to watch the entire sereis on DVD.

After a wonderful lunch with our DR Jose, I'm off to make an unhappy phone call.

Isn't Dale Evans the source of the quote, I never liked flies till I opened one? Or was it my neighbor in Ohio?

Mr. Elmore, you have still not told me what all the hoopla was about Upen Patel...and I cannot imagine what possible websites you could visit that would have anything to do with Bollywood actors.
