I really loved Richard Harris in the movie version of CAMELOT, but he's ham through and through in this stage version

Did he ever star in Ham of LaMuncha?

BK, what was your Indian food experience?

I would suggest going to and Indian place that has a buffet, then you can try many different taste treats!

As I was perusing various eateries on-line yesterday I saw some very good reviews for a place called INDIA SWEETS AND SPICE which is at 3126 Los Feliz Blvd. It is cheap and, according to the reviews, quite tasty...and they show Bollywood movies on a giant tv screen. It also has an Asian grocery store attached. I will probably try to check it out during my touristy travels.

Adrianna, you should certainly go see some of those film noirs...there are some wonderful titles showing..I may also try to see the double feature that is showing Saturday night (the 28th) as my interviewee Peggy Webber is scheduled to be in attendance (for the film THE WRONG MAN...I forget what the co-feature is)....the Saturday showing depends on whether I can make the dash from Burbank to Hollywood in time for the showing.

MattH - There was a cast album for Gone With The Wind in London - I had the gatefold LP - I don't think it's ever been issued on CD, though - don't know why.  I think it was on Polygram or some such label.

TOD:
I concur with MBARNUM's suggestion of trying an Indian buffet.

Indian food is so different from American food and can take some getting used to. Not all of it is hot, either. I've introduced a number of friends to Indian food and most newbies like one or more of the Indian chicken dishes. My local Indian eatery serves Tandori salmon, cooked in that very-hot oven that Jose mentioned, that is just wonderful.

Dear Ann's latest column is entitled:

Ho Ho Ho, Merry Imus!

I'll spare you the link.

Of all the people in ALL the world, Ann is the LAST one who should be opening her yap on this topic.

Still, I agree....if anyone would know from "Ho", it would be Coulter.

My Indian food experience was in the early to mid-70s - I was taken to what I was told was a great Indian restaurant somewhere in West LA or Santa Monica.  I was with my cousins, and they ordered, having eaten there many times.  Unfortunately, they ordered everything extra hot.  I took one bite of something and that was the end of the meal.  The taste was terrible, but worse, my mouth was so on fire that twenty glasses of water (and I'm not kidding) could not put it out.  I haven't eaten nor been in an Indian restaurant since.

The CBS and NBC slates tonight at ALL NEW!

UGLY BETTY and GREY'S ANATOMY are clip shows, and I haven't made up my mind about watching them since I've seen every episode (and in the case of GREY'S, multiple times).

Sorry, DR Ron Pulliam, SMALLVILLE is a repeat, and SUPERNATURAL isn't even on.


Well, then.....that leaves only "live" viewing for me tonight...on CBS.

It's an impossibly beautiful morning here in Oakland CA.  The skies are bright blue...the air is crisp.  It's going to be breezy today, with northwesterly winds keeping everything in the Bay area on the coolish side.

Richard Harris is pretty much always a ham.  His philosophy of acting seems to be:  "I'll will alternately shout, then whisper intently."  Those seem to pretty much be his only two choices.  I thought he was a terrible choice for CAMELOT, but then I didn't think much of Vanessa Redgrave or Franco Nero either.  I recently saw Harris again in CROMWELL on TCM.  Not a good movie but vaguely interesting as history.  But Harris is rather awful, giving his usual honking shouting/intent whispering performance.

And one can never forgive him for recording one of the worst songs in the world, MacArthur Park.  But then, of course, what can one do with some of the worst lyrics in the world...green icing melting and never not having recipes.  Geeze!  What a dumb-ass song!  I've actually heard Vic Damone sing this god-awful mess and even he can't do anything with it, so I guess I shouldn't blame Harris for it.

Harris never really got good until he got older...I quite like him in THE FIELD.

Love Indian food.  Chicken Tandoori, Chicken Marsala, Lamb, lentils, onion baji (not sure about that spelling).  Good stuff!  Yum!

BK, you will find that most Indian buffet food is very mild...at least the ones that I have been to...give it a try....and try a little of everything at the buffet no matter what it looks like.

You might need some antacid the first time (I did ...I ate sooooo much!).

The lovely Julieanne Pogue will be here soon, and I hope to get together with her.  If dear reader Pogue will tell her to call me back, because her cell phone number got nuked from my phone.
