I have tons to do all week & then I go to Philadelphia. I won't have access to a computer but Keith can collect my emails from home.

Yes, vibes and prayers to Jeanne also. She has been very quiet about her needs, but we want to be sure to remember her also.

Many vibes out to all who are in need!

Thanks again to DRs Elmore, Kerry, Jane, (and any others in the last few pages I may have missed) for the well wishes.

I did find enough patience to watch some fun and work things this afternoon. I began by watching next week's episode of NURSE JACKIE from Showtime On Demand. As I started it, I wondered WHY ON EARTH after spending all day at the hospital I'd want to watch a hospital show today, but it had already started, and it is only 26 minutes long. Another very good, funny but poignant episode.

Then I watched last night's RAISING THE BAR. This may have been the best episode of the season thus far. I really enjoyed both cases and felt the endings were appropriate.

Then, I decided I'd try PLAYTIME. I figured if I just got antsy, I could save my place (Criterion Blu-rays allow you to bookmark anywhere you stop), but I was able to get through the whole thing.

It's a film with so many brilliant moments, and so much going on that multiple viewings really are required to have a chance of catching everything.

Still, it's too long and some of the joy and wit just sort of wilts after a time. Great gags, though, and it's always a pleasure to watch it. (I can't imagine that the original ran 30 minutes longer than the version we now have. Talk about too much of a good thing.)

I had time to get through three of the bonus items (there are five left). Instead of an entire running commentary, there was a scene specific commentary of about 45 minutes (which I MUCH appreciated, not having to sit through the entire film again in one day.)

A Tati scholar provides a making-of featurette using archival footage of the behind-the-scenes looks at set construction and directing actors on the set (and the eventual destruction of it.)

Matt H. · « **Reply #131 on:** July 28, 2009, 01:28:37 PM »

And there's a Terry Jones introduction to the movie, but ALWAYS skip these introductions since they give away too many gags and spoil lots of priceless moments if you've never seen the movie before.

Well, my afternoon internet surf is over, and I guess I'll try to get some writing done. This should be interesting.

Good Afternoon!

Sorry to be sitting here like so much fish, but I had to run out of the apartment for a few hours to run some errands and take care of some issues. -I didn't realize I hadn't logged off of HHw or that I left my computer on.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #135 on:** July 28, 2009, 02:10:27 PM »

DR George - Nice skylight!

I'm done with bunches of errands and whatnot, lunch at Islands, and more errands and whatnot. I haven't been able to pick up the DVDs of Two's Company yet - there's a sign on their door that says "back at noon - family emergency". It's now three and they're still not back.

Tonight is the first preview of CATCH ME IF YOU CAN. I can't even imagine how Norbert Leo Butz is going to get through it.

I have heard some advance buzz that the show is dynamite. George, are you interested in going?

Has anyone heard anything from Danise? I am really getting worried.

All the men of my mother's side of the family were golfers. Going back, her grandfather and her father were greenskeepers. One of my uncles ended up being a greenskeeper as well.
I'd like to say that I've never set foot on a golf course, but, while the tv-movieTHE TEN MILLION DOLLAR GETAWAY was being filmed in and around Pittsburgh, my one shooting day as an extra involved a bar, a bowling alley, a club house and a golf course! And though only contracted for the 6am call at the bowling alley, my day ended at the golf course at midnight. . .
I'm quite visible in all my "atmosphere" scenes in this film. . .
To misquote ANNIE, " but I've never even picked up a golf club!"
I have no interest at all in the sport, but, in hi-def, those greens sure are G-R-E-E-N! My relatives would have been proud.
