Well, you've read the notes, the notes lost an hour of sleep, and now it is time for you to post until the sleepless cows come home.

And the word of the day is: HALIDOM!

Morning, everyone. How do you all get into HHW and/or know BK?

I forgot to answer yesterday's T.O.D.

I love NORTH BY NORTHWEST and VERTIGO and PSYCHO; but my very favorite Hitchcock film is SABOTEUR with Robert (Bob) Cumminings and Norman Lloyd. I have seen that film, at least, ten times.

Goodnight.

Fourth post after BK!

Oh, and I'm home.

George · « **Reply #7 on:** March 10, 2019, 01:12:39 AM »

We had a cast party at the director's home. There was food and drinks (I brought diet Pepsi) and chatting and dancing and a good time was had by all!

A few Bunbury cast members are in a show at Olympia Family Theater that has a performance today at 10:30 (I think), so most of them left early, but the rest of us partied on. When I left, there were three non-residents (they have a couple of friends renting rooms who were there) remaining. I'm home and need to get to sleep. Our call time is 1:00 p.m.

Until later!

I got here completely by accident. But I was invited to stick around as a result of accepting that invite I have met some of the best people I know. And I have learned an awful lot!

Jane, the two versions of Man Who Knew Too Much are different. Different eras of filmmaking, budgets and styles. I think the original is scarier.

John G. · « **Reply #12 on:** March 10, 2019, 05:17:35 AM »

It may be time to watch them both again.

The clocks that had to be manually changed have been changed. Ugh.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #15 on:** March 10, 2019, 07:05:39 AM »

Yep, that's what the Psycho continuations are all about -- being fun on certain levels. That's all we can ask of them.

The alarm rang at 6:30 and I got up to feed the cats. I thought, it sure is dark out; is that becayse it's really 5:30? I set the alarm for 7:30 and went back to bed. At 7:30 I fed the cats and went back to bed/ When I got up[, iy was nearly 10:00, but I know it's really 9:00.

I had a dream that DR vixmom and I were at the Metropolitan Opera to see La Perichole, directed by Cyril Ritchard. Before the last act began, the Met had scenes from upcoming operas. The ladfy singing "My Man's Gone Now" from Porgy and Bess had such ac small voice we couldn't hear her at all.

I also had a long dream in which my friend Thom Heinrichs, an AIDS casualty, and I went Christmas shopping in downtown Middletown, OH, after a terrible rehearsal for a Gershwin recording. There were children, large dogs, and a few large aquatic creatures cavorting in a lake on the grounds of the Sorg Mansion. The person for whom I was shopping was Jim Ashworth, my manager at Office Outfitters, where I worked from 1973-1977.

Thatch has a new Amazon carton. He's very happy lounging in it.

DR Elmore's dreams have been particularly prolific of late. There was one (I think yesterday) that would surely have short-circuited the Dream-O-Matic 6000. Mine run in spurts, and I had a short run of good ones a couple of weeks ago. They've been quite vague over the past week or so.

DR Jan I met Bruce in high school when I was 15. I knew who he was because my father ate at his father's restaurant at least once a week. My father was a doctor. I might have been around 10 the first time my father took me to work with him. I would count pills into packages for patients and sometimes watch minor proceedures and do other little odd jobs. We always walked down the street for lunch where Bruce's father was very nice to me.

Thanks. I don't really like scarier. Keith does. I should mention it to him.

I had one more last night. While Annabelle and I were riding the elevator on patrol I looked down at my shoes and remembered it because part of the dream was about polishing my shoes. In the dream I had agreed to come to Troy, NY and cook for my Italian friends an Italian dinner. Part of the dream dealt with getting to Troy and reading a road map.

Because of the time change, the Dream-O-Matic 6000 is on the blink, but I am sure DR ELMORE's recent dreams are caused by the pesky Mars-Uranus conjunction that is making us all a bit off center.

DR jan I have been here since the early 1990's when I was intrigued by former DR JMK's descriptions of the place.

TOD from yesterday: Shadow of a Doubt (I'm surprised that nobody mentioned that one)
Psycho
The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956)
The Birds
Strangers on a Train
Frenzy

DR jan: Bruce put a link to HHW on a post he made on a Broadway forum (either allthatchat.com or Broadwayworld.com). I discovered that he had produced several CDs that I loved, particularly Brent Barrett's, who is my favorite male singer.

I'm up, I'm up - maybe five hours of sleep with the lost hour.
