Well, you've read the notes, what began as one of THOSE notes turned out fine, and now it is time for you to post until the fine cows come home.

And the word of the day is: NOSOPHOBIA!

Good luck with the casting, BK. Hope it's cast the way you envision it.

Morning all.

That is all.

Good Morning. It's early... or at least seems that way.

BK's birthday order was all straightened out, and now instead of getting there too late - it will get there too early - possibly even today, but maybe tomorrow.

(We haven't actually tried these, but they LOOKED fascinating on screen so we took a chance - so if they don't taste really good, you can at least enjoy looking at them.)

INSIDE OUT is a wonderful show, a real delight when I saw it at the Cherry Lane in NYC ways back. I'm so glad for everyone involved with this production that it is happening.

I recall seeing THE QUATERMASS XPERIMENT when I was a kid. It was second billed to another film at the Orpheum Theater in Seattle. (Can't recall the other film's title.)

But, I do remember that THE QUATERMASS XPERIMENT played under the title of THE CREEPING UNKNOWN.

My favorite Quatermass film is the one that takes place in the London subways. I think it's called QUATERMASS AND THE PIT.

Good morning, all.

Had a lousy night's sleep and tried to make up for it a little bit, but it's time now to get up and at 'em.

Good morning, all! I slept far too late. O've got some tidying to accomplish and I hope to get some work on the Moross scores in today. I've finished Act One of Paint Your Wagon and I believe that Joshie is bringing me some of Act Two today. If not, I'll take Act One diwn to City Center tomorrow and pick up the music.

I've intended for years to ketchup on all the Quartermass films. The only movie version I've seen is the subway one which I only have on DVD. I also have the original BBC TV series, and I have no idea how far I ever got with it. Yes sir, some ketchup is needed.

Wednesday morning greetings! Today I'm going to make another attempt to visit Mom.

So, I'm eating my breakfast and reading Marni Nixon's book. Almost choked on my peanut butter toast when I read: "The rented house on Chesley Avenue was owned by a woman whose niece, Virginia Ellis, was the child prodigy of the area."

Before I married Richard, my name was Virginia Ellis, but I was not a child prodigy.

Last night I watched BUNNY LAKE IS MISSING, which I always loved for its style and atmosphere, but I surprised myself by really liking it now in spite of the less than great handling of its plot line in the second half of the film. I look forward to listening to the commentary with Mr. Redman and Ms. Kirgo.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #14 on:** December 03, 2014, 07:19:05 AM »

I must get the Marni Nixon book.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #15 on:** December 03, 2014, 07:19:41 AM »

I cannot get into the QUATERMASS films, but that is just me.

Casting vibes for MR BK.

My question for ASK BK DAY:

Which movie musical do you think has the most successful singing dubbing......and which do you think is the worse?

No, DR JRand64, you are not alone on this. I've never understood Dr Who, either.

I've spoken to Joshie and I will see him tomorrow. I'm on to Jerome Moross' Civil War show Gentlemen Be Seated this afternoon.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #18 on:** December 03, 2014, 08:40:42 AM »

I, too, am a certified member of the Doesn't Get Dr. Who Club.

Actually, the only one I really like is QUATERMASS AND THE PIT. The plot up until the last 10-15 minutes is quite intriguing, but the climax and resolution are pretty dumb.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #20 on:** December 03, 2014, 09:15:51 AM »

Well the comradeship is reconfirming.....

There are a few Dr Who fans here on HHW.....so I shall refrain. I know it is MUCH different now, but the early episodes on PBS were just unappealing to me.....

I think The King and I's dubbing is flawless and I think the same about West Side Story, which I know some will disagree about. Worst? Have to think about that one.

bk · « **Reply #22 on:** December 03, 2014, 10:26:40 AM »

I'm up, I'm up. Really having trouble falling asleep this past week - I suppose I got six hours of sleep, maybe a bit more.

bk · « **Reply #23 on:** December 03, 2014, 10:26:48 AM »

Gray out, but no rain.

Agree withe King and I. Marni Nixon worked with Deborah Kerr so the transitions would be seamless

And a good afternoon to all. I got a late start this AM.

And now I am off to the airport to pick up my mother

Michael · « **Reply #26 on:** December 03, 2014, 10:47:05 AM »

I always think of a question when it isn't ASK BK day and never remember what it is by the time Wednesday arrives. I really should write them down.

That is pretty cool to see your name in a book.

I'm listening to Sandy's latest CD.
