When I was in high school, I went to London and saw her in Tom Stoppard’s Night and Day. It wasn’t a great play, but she was. Afterwards, about four of us waited for her at the stage door. She came out and regaled us. She said I won a prize for coming the farthest to see her.

RIP Dame Maggie. It's been great to see other people's memories of seeing her on stage. I never had that pleasure but saw her in several movies before the Downton Abbey fame. Now I think I need to watch some more.

Tennessee might not even be far enough, apparently, and that’s where my mom is.

Vibes for your mother.

Maggie Smith was great in so many movies. Kanopy just added Travels with My Aunt, which also features Cindy Williams. I loved her in Tea with the Dames, Evil Under the Sun and the Exotic Marigold Hotel movies.

Wow!   What a dump - only in a really good way!

Finishing Hereditary. Great performances. An ending Rosemary’s Baby would recognize.

Friday afternoon greetings!  Hurricane Helene’s remnants have arrived and our internet went down right after I logged in here.  We seem to be back now.

Just found out Moulin Rouge is leaving Kanopy this month. This is the John Huston film. Not the musical trash.

A friend of mine had hip replacement surgery today. I was shocked that it is treated as outpatient, and they're already home and (with a walker) walking up and down their driveway.

He could use it as a countdown to Election Day.

Re the video clips:

He posted one where he recreated a 1980's Glamour Shot photo of his mother that's on his grandmother's mantel and sneaked it into his grandmother's house and replaced the original photo.
