What is a reduction sauce?

It is a sauce that has been reduced, boiled down until it thickens a bit, then usually "mounted" with butter.

Here's a basic primer from The Splendid Table.

My question for ASK BK Day....Do You Know the Milky Way?

My next question for ASK BK Day - have you ever met and/or worked with Mr Pat Boone?

Jrand74 · « **Reply #157 on:** March 10, 2010, 07:21:00 PM »

Ahhh thanks, DR JOSE.

Oh yes....one late night on the overnight KULTURE shows, there was a clip from a production of SEANCE ON A WET AFTERNOON...and I was intrigued and stunned by its power!

Jrand74 · « **Reply #158 on:** March 10, 2010, 07:23:00 PM »

My WET was misplaced.

Who are these guests that hang around here? Maybe Pat Boone is one of them.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #159 on:** March 10, 2010, 07:24:20 PM »

Ah - that picture has MR BK with an open mouthed smile!

I believe "WET SEANCE" is one of DR elmore's "art films".

DR MATTH - is SANJURO the movie about the Japanese bureaucrat and the playground?

No, it's a follow-up to YOJIMBO. 9 knuckleheaded young samurais are taken in by a slick charlatan until they're shown the light by a traveling ronin - Sanjuro. The evil superintendent has kidnapped the honest chamberlain and Sanjuro plots to get him back home safe. However, he has to keep plotting new escapes because the Nine Stooges keep thinking they know better than he and so his job becomes twice as difficult dealing with idiots on one side and evildoers on the other.

DR JOSE I'm going to link that on my FACEBOOK. It's too funny not to share.

Time for me to leave. I'm going to a meeting of Theater Artists Olympia's play-reading committee (of which I am a member) and we're going to finalize (I think) next year's shows.

Until later!

When I went downstairs, I put in the Blu-ray of FRANTIC to watch. Well, at least Warners got the aspect ratio this time. First time I've seen it done correctly since seeing it in the theater.

It's not a stellar video transfer, and I was REALLY disappointed with the sound. Warners has encoded the sound as DTS-HD MA 2.0, but because it's done like that, I can't allow Prologic to put this mono track into the center channel where it belongs. Instead, I get it in the left and right front speakers, and a movie just seems WEIRD with dialogue coming from the front left and right channels and not from the center channel.

(I noticed that PRESUMED INNOCENT had also been done that way. Big disappointment.)

Okay.................I have my Kurosawas mixed up.

When that was over, I started watching tonight's HUMAN TARGET episode. It was a good one with some surprises and some excitement. A couple of over the top stunts, but that's part for the course for this Bond-like series.

Matt H. · « **Reply #175 on:** March 10, 2010, 07:38:40 PM »

And I ended my evening of viewing with tonight's MODERN FAMILY.

Not as hilarious as last week's, but there were some definite high points. Gloria's comments in her Colombian accent are priceless ("You can't sleep in your bed of lies"), and Mitchell's names for his pets were a scream, too (Flyza Minnelli for his bird, for example).

Matt H. · « **Reply #176 on:** March 10, 2010, 07:39:51 PM »

I got a UPS shipping notice saying that TOY STORY wasn't going to arrive until next week, so it looks like tomorrow will be BIGGER THAN LIFE on Blu-ray (unless something else comes in or I decide to take a day off.) We'll see.

Even in Germany, the director's girlfriend gets the part.

I need to head downstairs to bed, too. I have slept like the dead the last two nights, my body obviously trying to recover from the late night Oscar hours.

Good night!
