They also have The Man Who Invented Christmas, which has been discussed here recently.

Blackmail is actually a silent movie with dialogue added or dubbed into it. Interesting.

It’s also the first movie with a Hitchcock cameo. A kid is tormenting him and he’s never t afraid to dish it back.

Since she didn't use the keyboard and mouse my guess is that they need to be charged....but of course that means a special lightning to USB cable.

I just ordered one. 

Do I need a dongle....that little USB thing that I use with my Windows wireless mouse & keyboard....or does Bluetooth take care of that?

Here’s a chance to hear some of Larry’s work: https://playbill.com/article/video-watch-the-encores-orchestra-rehearse-shy-for-new-york-city-centers-once-upon-a-mattress

Sadly, no. "Shy" was one of Joshie's.

Sorry. Still, it was nice to hear the song.

And Joshie's work is wonderful!

That sounds wonderful.

There's Jeremy! And it's always great to see Susan Jolles. A few other familiar faces.
No David Gursky this time?

Nope. Just find the little symbol in the top right menu bar to turn Bluetooth on -- unless you have a newer operating system that I'm not familiar with.

A murder has just occurred in Blackmail. It’s a great Hitchcock moment, except I can’t believe Cyril Ritchard would ever try to rape a woman. He’s not that good of an actor.

He was married, you know.

I'm up, I'm up - nine hours of sleep. Was up earlier after six, but went back to bed.

I slept six hours and couldn't get back to sleep.

Not possible!  And it's never babbling if it turns a page!

Sweeney Todd himself, Josh Groban, just showed up in Weird as a waiter.

I love David Staller.

One of my favorite albums is EASY TO REMEMBER.
His voice enchants me.

His godmother was Hermione Gingold. He named his theater company after her. I’ve attended several of his productions, and enjoyed them tremendously. Here’s a little bit more information.

“In 2006, Staller founded Gingold Theatrical Group, a New York based theater company that presents works based on George Bernard Shaw's humanitarian precepts. They present monthly script-in-hand performances at New York City’s Symphony Space, produce off-Broadway productions, and partner with several New York educational programs.

Staller has directed performances of all of Bernard Shaw’s 65 plays.”

I have a Playbill from A Visit To A Small Planet that was autographed by Cyril Ritchard and the rest of the cast.

DR CHAS SMITH the "about" tab tells me that I am using the High Sierra  10.3.6 Operating System.

I have at 27" Retina Display....and it seems to be from 2020.  So it is not the very LATEST I am sure.

And thanks for the info about the dongle.  When my cord arrives sometime next week, I shall charge up my keyboard & mouse and see what happens.
