Darn, my biopsy results.

The theater where I usher has made a generous offer on Facebook to Taylor and Travis to host their nuptials. I thought that was very nice of them.

High and Low is incredible. May be Toshiro Mifune’s finest performance. But there are so many great ones.

Thank you.  The upsetting part is now I have to either cut it out or burn it out, and it is a long process of healing.

Greetings from the Bedford Playhouse. I completely forgot to say I was coming here tonight. They’re showing The Shootist which a friend wanted to see, and I don’t terribly mind seeing it, so here we are.

I want all the Hawaiian shirts the police wear in High and Low. They may be in black and white, but the patterns are wonderful.

Enjoy The Shootist, ChasSmith. I recall Lauren Bacall was really good in that.

I also like the movie.  They were all good in it.

We are off to dinner with two other couples.  This will be a test of the new hearing aids I got yesterday to try.

High and Low is in my top-ten of all time. I'm afraid of the remake about to come out - from Spike Lee.

It’s out. It is and isn’t a remake. The first half is fairly faithful, but the second half is different in that it keeps its focus on the main character, not the police.

And just as Kurosawa made the American original a totally Japanese experience, the new movie makes it about Brooklyn.

The extras on the High and Low Criterion disc are good.
