A Facebook friend of mine photoshopped her dogs into the equal sign that is so popular.

Cillaliz: "A Time to Kill" headed to Broadway:

http://www.theatermania.com/new-york-city-theater/news/03-2013/tony-award-winner-rupert-holmes-a-time-to-kill-has_64708.html?cid=homepage_news

I saw that announced somewhere a while back.  I am hoping that I can get there, but since my track record on travel isn't exactly stellar this year, I'm just going to wait to even think about it

I saw that in D.C. at the Arena.

I mentioned that production of A TIME TO KILL very briefly but glowingly in the comments under the article at
http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/10/11/new-broadway-play-to-star-estelle-parsons-and-stephen-spinella/



Interesting.  They don't have the rights to the film only to the book - or something like that. Rupert told me never to talk to him about the film as he has never seen it and had to agree not to watch it to guarantee the play is not based at all on the movie.

Finishing up "To Rome with Love" and find it meh overall. But it's always nice to see Judy Davis, even if she only has two minutes of screen time.

Good grief - the red dress isn't in the finale - it closes the First Act.....or maybe some leading ladies put it back on for the curtain call.....


No, the red dress is for the Harmonia Gardens which is scene 2 of Act II.

Every time BK says Legrand/Demy, I think we're about to hear an announcement of some very welcome film restoration.

Doesn't sound like there are any parts for me.  I will tell my agent not to bother.

I think he is your first cousin once removed.


First cousins share a grandparent, second cousins share a great-grandparent, third cousins share a great-great-grandparent, and so on. The degree of cousinhood ("first," "second," etc.) denotes the number of generations between two cousins and their nearest common ancestor.

The term "removed" refers to the number of generations separating the cousins themselves. So your first cousin once removed is the child (or parent) of your first cousin. Your second cousin once removed is the child (or parent) of your second cousin. And your first cousin twice removed is the grandchild (or grandparent) of your first cousin.

thank you!  I have been trying to figure out how that works for years!

I have to confess -- I printed that out and put it in the genealogy file drawer.  (Yes, I have a genealogy file drawer.)

This Legrand set is pretty amazing.  Eleven discs - under fifty bucks.  Can't beat that.

Secondary TOD:

Brian De Palma
SISTERS
PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE (benefit of the doubt, haven't seen it in many years)
CARRIE
THE FURY
BLOW OUT

John Carpenter
HALLOWEEN
THE FOG
ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK
CHRISTINE
THEY LIVE

Both are entertaining, I like each of their styles, and I'm being a bit of a hard grader by not including some of their other efforts which I also very much enjoy.


I foErgot about PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE.  I love that movie.

Mine as well - Love Is Like Water and  Father and Son are probably my two favorites
