This morning I was reading an old review of the Al Pacino THE MERCHANT OF VENICE (which I never saw in theaters or on cable before), and lo and behold, it came on one of the HBO channels tonight, so I got the DVR to pick it up, and I'll watch it over the next few days. Wonderful looking cast.

Question for ASK BK day....

Did you ever meet Lucille Ball?

And if so, what were your impressions?

My cousin used to have Miss Ball over for backgammon all the time, but, sadly I never got to meet her (Miss Ball - I met my cousin).

TCB: I believe Chicago was always called Chicago.

Speaking of awful inappropriate musical scores, tonight I saw a film with a doozy - and it actually stops this particular film from being a minor classic, that's how bad it is and how good the film is.  I'll talk about it in the notes.

Skip is fighting off a flu and went to bed early, so I'm typing very lightly so as not to disturb him.

One of my favorite musical themes from a merely-pretty-good movie is the theme for VIVA MAX.  I keep thinking it's a flawed enough film with an intriguing premise (a general tries to recapture the Alamo to impress a woman) that it might make a good musical, but when people watch the film with that in mind, they just don't see it.

Meaning they don't see the musical possibilities, they do of course see the film.  :)

There was a lightning flash practically right above my house and then thunder and my power blinked.  My computer restarted and I had to start it all up again.  It's been a long time since I've seen lightning in this area.

That is unusual for your part of the country.

Was just reading the sources cited of this dissertation that the UND had received as a gift from the man wh did it as part of his doctoral work at USC.

I am suspecting that USC also must have a sizeable film collection. I knew UCLA did but from what I am gathering USC must also have a sizeable on.

Couple of other libraries that have sizeable telly collections outside of the Museum of Television and they are the Library of Popular Culture are Bowling Green and the other is the University of Wisconsin at Madison...

For those who are sci fi fans, the Library of Popular culture has one of the largest collections of science fiction.

Well, it seems to have stopped raining and thundering and lightning.  Earlier this evening, there was a minute or two of a light snow!
