Good morning, all! I slept late because I stayed up too late. But I am dressed and moving about, and I will shortly put my laundry into the washers. I have to stay close to the apartment today because I've got two packagws to be signed for when they show up. Since one is perishable, I need to be here.
Tomorrow I am back to Toyland. I have a possible note error that needs checking, and I hope that I can begin my list of final corrections before we print the recording orchestra parts.
I first saw JOSEPH ANDREWS at the Carnegie Hall Cinema, which no longer exists. My memory is that it was on a double bill with THE DUELLISTS. I remember nothing of that film now, but I still remember how much I loved Ann-Margret as Lady Booby and Beryl Reid as Slipslop. It's a much coarser film than TOM JONES, which is close to perfect IMO, and my memory is that the screenplay is not as faithful to Henry Fielding's novel as Johb Osborne's for TOM JONES.
