Molded in playdough, maybe.

What an auspicious start to page six.

If BK doesn't care for page 7, could he care less for page 6?

In The Wrong Man, Henry Fonda and Vera Miles knock on a door answered by an impossibly young Bonnie Franklin and Tuesday Weld. Strange.

Have decided to watch Dial M for Murder next. My player doesn’t do 3D. So it will have to be 2D.

Goodnight, Jane.

Are there home systems that do 3D?

John G. · « **Reply #159 on:** April 12, 2024, 07:23:31 PM »

Yes, Freddie, there are. And the disc was released with both versions.

Thanks for the info! I didn't realize that.

The murder scene in Dial M is perfect.

I realize what kept me from loving The Wrong Man this time around. There’s no humor or even much softness in it. It’s hard. It needs to be. And that Hitchcockian sense of artifice is missing. It’s not a drawback, given the hard hitting nature of the script, its truth-based approach and the nervous breakdown of Vera Miles’s character.

Yes, there are. My TV is capable but I don't have a 3D player or the special glasses that are needed.

The religious nature of the film is also profound.

On tomorrow's docket: some more laundry and some kitchen chores.

singdaw · « **Reply #168 on:** April 12, 2024, 07:45:36 PM »

It's supposed to be in the 70s!

singdaw · « **Reply #169 on:** April 12, 2024, 07:46:02 PM »

Perhaps I will do my laundry in 3-D.

Watched episode one of Palm Royale tonight (Apple+). Alison Janney is wonderful in it. Carol Burnett did not have any lines so far.

It’s been a long day.

But two Hitchcocks has been a nice way to end the day.

Still, let’s get off this page.

John G. · « **Reply #177 on:** April 12, 2024, 08:42:29 PM »

Only a few more posts.

John G. · « **Reply #178 on:** April 12, 2024, 08:42:52 PM »

Can’t think of anything jolly to say.

John G. · « **Reply #179 on:** April 12, 2024, 08:43:21 PM »

Except it’s a jolly holiday with Mary.
