Meanwhile, a week and a half prior to Scent of Mystery's premiere, down at the Four Star Behind the Great Wall has opened - in AromaRama - competing smell movies. Of course I was there opening day.

And oh, THE COURT JESTER! I can’t even begin to count how many times I saw that film.

TCB · « **Reply #33 on:** March 15, 2019, 03:04:22 AM »

I never saw a film in Aromarama.

TCB · « **Reply #34 on:** March 15, 2019, 03:05:04 AM »

Obviously, I can’t sleep.

TCB · « **Reply #35 on:** March 15, 2019, 03:06:03 AM »

Perhaps I should read more of my Andrea Doria book.

TCB · « **Reply #36 on:** March 15, 2019, 03:07:00 AM »

Actually, I should find something a little more boring to read if I want to fall asleep.

TCB · « **Reply #37 on:** March 15, 2019, 03:09:45 AM »

Well, I will try again to fall asleep. I am looking at another condo this weekend. That is probably why I am wide awake.

February 17 - Jack the Ripper at the Wiltern - I'm there that weekend.

Enjoy your stroll down Memory Lane, BK!

March 23rd at the Stadium (I would have been there on Friday or Saturday) - double bill: The Gazebo and The Last Voyage.

Well, I suppose an enigma has been solved and I suppose it makes sense to me on some level now. In Benjamin Kritzer, I have Benjamin needing a North by Northwest fix, going to the New View in Hollywood to see it - horrible theater, pouring rain after and getting soaked all the way home. But I'm into March 1960 and it never played there. So, unless it was WAY later, which I doubt, I in fact saw it at the Admiral just down the street, also a horrible theater. It's making sense and so is the timing - around December 28, rainy season according to the newspaper.

And now maybe I should get some sleep.

Good morning, all.

I, too, enjoy the cast of Pocketful of Miracles, though I wonder what’s going to happen to Apple Annie the day after the daughter sails off. It really needs 20 minutes cut. But you can’t beat Falk, Davis, Glenn Ford, Edward Everett Horton, Ellen Corby and all those great character actors.

Good morning, all!

I slept in much later than I intended and Annabelle is ready to patrol. I am not moving well today, so our patrol will be short.

DR JohnG, I was just looking at Jesse Green's Kiss Me, Kate review. He generally pans every Encores! production, and my impression is he's so "hip" that he must dislike period musicals unless they're modernized to be "hip" too.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #48 on:** March 15, 2019, 05:56:32 AM »

And a light bulb just blew, so I must change it and clean the litter. Annabelle has begun tossing thiongs off the table. I hear them fall, and wonder what she just tossed.

I have been awake since 4:30. Sigh.

Last night was a Benadryl night for me, which resulted in a more solid sleep than usual and an extra hour of it this morning.

And the return of two or three crazy dreams strung together...every one of them yet more variations on usual themes.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #52 on:** March 15, 2019, 06:03:27 AM »

Today I must review A Chorus Line for tomorrow morning’s sitzprobe.

And a most unusual sitzprobe it will be for the likes of me, being as we’ll be separated from the cast by a country mile.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #53 on:** March 15, 2019, 06:05:02 AM »

The other thing I must accomplish today is doing the shopping for Sunday’s corned beef dinner. Because, folks, it’s that time of year again.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #54 on:** March 15, 2019, 06:10:59 AM »

More bits of the dream are coming back to me. I wish I had the energy to document it, if only for myself, but this one ain’t happening.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #55 on:** March 15, 2019, 06:14:10 AM »

TOD

No idea. And I didn’t end up watching anything last night either, sorry to say. I got going on some other stuff, which was all well and good, but I still need me a good movie night. Maybe tonight. Maybe tomorrow night.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #56 on:** March 15, 2019, 06:27:51 AM »

OMG. I’ve been tempted to do the newspapers.com thing, too, and I know it would be an incredible time suck.

BK, are you able to view the actual pages from the printed paper?

The L.A. Times, of course, is an automatic win. But I’d also need to know what’s available from my other home towns. Fort Lauderdale in the 1960s is a must. Then to be complete, I’d need Cleveland (for 5 years), Chicago (1 year), and Columbus (for my first decade on the planet).

There was this moment from Kentucky Fried Movie making fun of the TV ads about lingering odors

I'm surprised this eBay listing is only $9 for the Odorama card from "Polyester"
