THE SQUATTISH PLAY -  a new comedy about something or other

Would that be the sister play to The Succotash Play?

I can never remember if those lines are from Gypsy or Jose.

I would respond to that post, but I'm afraid I might incriminate myself.  Further.

bk - Good news about NYMF!  I guess that means your package was not really late then. -And I hope you were able to get the refund from the USPS.

Oh, certainly.

Spent a large part of the evening on the telephone with a couple of dear friends. Nice to talk to them, and definitely preferable to sitting through THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE which we didn't do.

There's a slight chance we may go tomorrow, but I'm really not in the mood for it.

Thank you for all the vibes.   :D


The flight arrived in NY over two hours late but then custom’s must have gone fairly quickly (I get the details later) as it didn’t take too long for Craig’s friend to escort Ioana (pronounced ee-wa-na) to Jet Blue for her connecting flight, which was also two hours late.  She should be arriving in Pittsburg soon.  Craig said he will give us a quick call all is ok.  

Ioana had a big week before leaving, her exams, packing their apartment & saying goodby to family & friends.  I bet she is exhausted & will want to sleep the weekend away, which will be fine since Craig has major exams & paper due next week.

I did manage to watch THE LAST MIMZY, a kind of family science fiction film with young kids as the protagonists. Really much ado about special effects and everyone looking in wide-eyed wonder at what's happening. We don't really find out until 70 minutes into the film how the mimzy is supposed to be a savior.

DR Jane - glad to hear that the most challenging parts of Ioana's trip are behind her.  Craig has exams already?  Seems like he just started school!

THE LAST MIMZY has been given the Infinifilm treatment on this DVD so there are dozens of featurettes from half a minute to several minutes long which branch out from the movie to extend one's understanding of an effect or a special moment for an actor or the director.

Fortunately, the featurettes can be viewed separately so the film doesn't have to watched all the way through to see the extra information. I watched about half of them tonight.

Thanks Ginny.  He has a few mini courses & mentioned something about mid terms ( I think on the regular courses) & finals soon on the mini-courses.  I need to get more details later.

There is a director's commentary on the disc which I only just started. I'll continue listening to it tomorrow.

I noticed earlier that the DVR was recording something, and when I pulled up the list, there was BILLY WILDER SPEAKS, a documentary released some years ago but which I've never seen all the way through, so I started watching it, and got about 15 minutes into it. I'll finish it tomorrow.

Very interesting discussion.

Well, I have some writing to tend to, so I'll do that and then head downstairs to bed.

Good night!

I even found clips of Lorna and Liza together and I think Lorna controls her voice much better than her half-sister! But, boy, together they do sound like their mother Judy! One can say that talent run in the family for sure!

I was in the mood for a little Hindu mythology (and who wouldn't be?) so I began the Bollywood movie MAHA SATI SAVITRI (1973).

 It is colorful and fun but I am too tired to finish it tonight so now I am off to bed.

By one who knows too much.

Wasn't that an Alfred Hitchcock feature?
