And my BD gift to BK -- this posting mini-frenzy that might help to get him off this damn page!

I'm still waiting for my copy of THE EGYPTIAN to arrive (along with THOSE LIPS, THOSE EYES), but I've not seen in for years. I don't remember it being a particularly good film, but I remember it as an eminently watchable film.

My BK question: Is SKIDDO worth seeing just to say one has finally seen it? I do remember when it came out and the disaster it was. Does it have enough "train-wreck" fascination to sit through it?

I do think Skidoo is worth watching - it's really something.

I'm up. I did get a good night's sleep but was hoping to sleep a bit later. Oh, well.

I am desperately trying to find a movie called Adventures of Casanova, which I need to see asap. I know we have experts here on how to unearth things on the Internet. The film is listed on a couple of "those" kinds of download sites, but I can never get to the point where I can view or download anything.

Happiest of birthdays to DR Miss Karen - sorry I missed you!

I survived my trip to Dayton and back. It's brutally hot here today and even places that are air conditioned aren't very cool. Tomorrow - more of the same with heat indexes around 112

Is this the one with Arturo de Córdova?

BK: I watched "The Egyptian" three times -- once for the film, once for the isolated (Brilliant) score and once for the commentary. I think of the two commentarians as Beavis and Butthead.

Honestly! These guys are film historians? I understand they're more into horror/sci-fi than dramatic spectacle. When one deferred to the other over how much of the score Herrmann wrote, the answer was two-thirds. Actually, I think the word used was "cues". It's possible Herrmann scored 2/3 of the film's cues, many of which would have been short/brief snippets of music....but Newman scored more than 50% of the film...and Herrmann used Newman motifs/themes in sequences he composed, so the dominant voice is Newman's. It always was, and lots of folks have tried to pretend it was the other way around.

23 Skidoo, again -- having lunch with Boo-Key

elmore3003 · « **Reply #87 on:** July 20, 2011, 12:35:09 PM »

It's been a long, not very good, day! I'm very crabby. The binder works great with the 1/2 inch combes which hold up to 100 pages of paper, and th 2 inch one which hold up to 400 pages. The 1 inch combs are a disaster, and I don't know if it's the binder or if the manufacturer sent us 100 defecrive binding combs. Since most of what I waas bnding today required the 1 inch comb, it was a day of aggravation and frustration. Then, the mail arrives and the jerk hasn't sent the last invoice check, so i'm royally screwed at the moment.

I was hoping it would show up today at the latest, and if it doesn't show tomorrow, I'll have to send an inquiry as to its status. I hate begging for money owed me.

BK, I checked my sources and no luck on Adventures of Casanova.

Maybe you can get hold of a techie type who can download the film and burn it onto a disc for you. Like you, I have never had any luck getting that to work correctly.

JMK · « **Reply #89 on:** July 20, 2011, 12:45:11 PM »

Doesn't look like Adventures of Casanova is available, at least anywhere I've looked.
