I had the great good fortune to watch BECKET tonight. It was just as magnificent as I remembered it being, and all things considered, the DVD is pretty wonderful, too. Yes, there are some scenes that are a bit problematic with judder or less than rich color. But to think the film was almost lost to us and now we have it looking so good, well, I'm thrilled and very grateful.

I must correct two things here - the film's color is exactly what it always was, almost perfectly replicated on this DVD.  And the film was never close to being lost - only the rights were problematic - even the "restoration" wasn't a full-blown things - they just dusted off the negative and made a new interpositve and digitally cleaned it up.

Out of the hundreds and hundreds of DVDs that I have and have not even opened yet, I could not find a single movie that I wanted to watch tonight...so I watched some episodes of MIKE HAMMER...you know that Darrin McGavin was quite an actor...and Miss Yvette Vickers, co-star of ATTACK OF THE 50 FT WOMEN had a great role in one of the episodes.

How does one do the curlicue that is on the "c" in Francois' name on the keyboard so it shows up when you type it?

On a PC keyboard:

Hold down the ALT key and enter 0231 = ç

(0199) = Ç for Upper case C with cedilla

NOTE: Must use number keypad, not numbers above the latter keys)

Note to get a complete list of special character codes from a Windows machine: run - charmap.exe

If you have MS Windows, use Insert Symbol to pull up the Character Map

Since I am still wide awake, due to a later afternoon nap, I think I will cuddle in bed with Freddy, Dog Bosco and a book on Bollywood movies that I started the other day.

Perhaps one of our twenty-six GUESTS would like to help?

Perhaps we will, by the skin of Thornton Wilder's teeth.

I wonder what 400 ever did to me that I should want to hit it?
