Back from the four-mile jog, errands and whatnot, and a little plate of matzo brei, which is surprisingly very calorie-friendly at under 300.


I wish I coudl walk forty four feet!

You have made that point before, elmore. Sometimes, though, I just like to indulge in pure trash, much like your video collection.

One of the stars of that movie used to be a regular on this site.
Oh, so I join and the stars leave? Is that what you're saying? LOL

Actually, this person left several years ago.  And you, John G., you are a star e-magazine editor.

Sounds impressive to me.

If his distribution is chronic
And his writing's pointed and keen
Though his magazine's electronic
And it's only read on a screen

Though he's mainly been read by fans online so far
The chances are
The guy is a star
Very nice, Thank you.

Back from too many errands and am tired. Maybe a nap before dinner.

Notice to Kevin
(Next time he checks in to HHW)

I see that e-Bay currently has an original poster of Reba McEntire (and some actor I have enver heard of) in ANNIE GET YOUR GUN.  Sadly, it is not a sgined poster.  And it is also $125.00.  Of course I know that Kevin is crazy about Reba.

I wish I had seen Reba and that unknown actor in Annie Get Your Gun!  I remember passing the theatre and hearing that it was sold out.

Thanks, TCB, for that link to Randy Rainbow's video.  He has lots of others and I think I watched them all.   So funny!

Back from a lovely party in Lansing where Mary Linda was showered with many lovely gifts and Rob received a chest full of tools from my brother-in-law.  Rob showed up at the end to be oohed and aahed over and to help clean up.  My sister and I have been home almost an hour and DN/Goddaughter Lauren is on her way to stay overnight here before heading back to Ohio tomorrow.  I'll stay until Monday.

I was just channel surfing and caught a few minutes of something called (I think) "Just Can't Get Enough," which had DR MBarnum's name all over it: Chippendale's dancers, undressed body builders, and atrocious acting. There are enough seminude actors to keep Mikey intersted in their careers for the next 30 years, by which time they'll be old enough for him to consider dating.

I'm watching Lydia's Kitchen now. Anything was better than watching the Chippendale movie. I really like Lydia and I would love to go to her restaurant.

Lauren's GPS brought her safely here and we've enjoyed pizza for dinner.  She's now taking an online test for the summer course she's taking, then we're going to confer about the shower she's hosting (in absentia) in Ohio 2 weeks from today.

BK:

I have a question (I know its not Wednesday, but if I don't ask it now I'll forget by Wednesday) I am watching the "Roadshow" version of South Pacific. (DVD release)  only haThe restored footage is a lot "paler" than the "General Release" version. Perhaps you know the answer to this:

I was wondering why couldn't they fix the color to match the balance of the film. According to the commentary they only had a postive print. Couldn't they have fix the color through the same process you did with The First Nudie Musical?

The additional roadshow footage came from a print, Michael.  I don't think it could have been color corrected to the point where it would match the standard release stuff, which I think was taken off of an internegative (I might be misremembering that).

I will tell you one DVD that really burned *me* up in that same regard, though, was HAWAII.  The roadshow edition of the VHS showed no appreciable difference in quality between the restored footage and the edited, standard release version.  The DVD still didn't include it.  I love that movie and would love for Criterion to release the full roadshow version of it.  And such a lovely Elmer Bernstein score, one of my all time favorites of his.

In an attempt to fend off withdrawal from DOWNTON ABBEY, we're rewatching GOSFORD PARK.  I had forgotten how funny Bob Balaban is in this movie.  "Alan Mowbray's a good idea--these people look like Alan Mowbray, plus he speaks with a British accent.  These people talk like they're from England.  Is Claudette Colbert available?  She's British isn't she, or is she just affected?"  ;)

I believe Bob's Uncle Barney is the man who fired Miss Frances Farmer in 1942 from Paramount.

I believe Bob's Uncle Barney is the man who fired Miss Frances Farmer in 1942 from Paramount.

Yes I also believe this is correct.....although not with the same panache as Jack Warner and Bette Davis later on in 1948....

Bette:  Jack, this director is crucifying me.  I cannot work with him.  Jack - it's him or me.

Jack:  (short pause)  Okay, Bette.  It's you.


And then of course ten years later when Davis was out on the tent circuit, a man stopped by and told Bette that Warner's was doing THE HELEN MORGAN STORY and wanted her to play Helen's mother.  Bette was taken aback - but work is work.  She wired Jack Warner:  "Hear you are interested in me for mother in Helen Morgan Story."

Jack wired back:  "No Bette.  We never even thought of you."

DR JMK I love the Si Zentor Premiere Liberty albums.....especially the Big Band one and the Trombones and Johnny Mann Singers LP.

And the design was great.  And they discussed at length the recording process.....all live with singers and orchestra.....no one singing to tracks ....  all done live....

My dog woke us up 4 times last night to go outside.

We're walking around like zombies today.

My cats won't stop waking me up at least 2-3 times per night.  I've been exhausted for a week.

The cats woke me up at 5:00 and I was REALLY dehydrated and had a horrible headache.  Not sure why I was so dehydrated, but I literally drank a gallon of water in a matter of a couple hours, took a shower, took some aleve and headed out to the lake by 7:00 AM.

Mom and I went to an auction where I got a lot of stuff for very little money. Mostly glass, some valuable, most not valuable, but when they give you three boxes of stuff when you only wanted a piece or two, you get stuff

Mom got some really nice things too.  She got one box that went really cheap, she threw away some really  bad artificial flowers and discovered the bowl they were in was beautiful cut glass.   We has some other little surprises, but it was a lot of fun

A mini suite of said score is available on a Kritzerland release.....The Boy and the Pirates.....

And the title tune is warbled by Miss S Gordon on a Kritzerland release that seems to be out of print and sold out.
