I got it. Or you could be running an underground gun smuggling ring! Reinforcing the Branch Davidians that live underground in Waco! š¹š I have no recollection of that, Senator.

I would be as satisfied with New York's standards for jury trials as any other state's standards. Let's keep our feet on the ground.

Heck, I'm not even here. I'm being faked by Stanley Kubrick from a desert in New Mexico after faking his own death.

We watched Mel Brooks Young Frankenstein the other night for my sons birthday. Both he and my wife saying all the dialog along with the actors. I just watched A Chorus Line for about the third time. I'm fascinated by this movie. It's a different world to me. More different than a foreign country. I appreciate what these dancers do and I enjoy this type of show, but I have a hard time understanding what drives them.

Young Frankenstein is a classic. The fact you have a wife and son who quote the dialog increases my regard for you as a human being.

Now watching The Egyptian, 1954. I've always loved this movie, but the book is immensely better.

Watching the Zoltan Korda's movie "Sahara" for the umpteenth time. One of Bogart's best.

Ingram was always great in his screen characters. Reading about Ingram, he was a graduate of Northwestern University with a degree in Medicine. He put that aside and pursued acting.

Watched Ghostbusters:Afterlife last night after my wife watched a stupid alien invasion movie. I needed a humorous break and it was cute.

I watched OUT OF AFRICA for the first time in many years. Many. This is partly because I am not much a re-watcher, but mostly because I cannot abide Meryl Streep. Something about her fairly makes my skin crawl. But it appeared on my Netflix list and I took a flyer. Wonder of wonder, I thought she was superb. The whole film is a remarkable achievement, but she was masterful. So there.
Canāt leave it without at least some kind of cavil. On the supposedly period rifles, the forends were all wrong.

We met Vincent Price in Dublin and he was the nicest person you could imagine. Super friendly and signing autographs for a crowd.

He Who Gets Slapped (1924) In my opinion, Lon Chaney is the greatest actor of all-time.

Our current crop has some pretty good actors. I like the ones that can play all kinds of parts believably. Willem Dafoe, Joaquin Phoenix, Nicole Kidman, Daniel Day-Lewis, Billy Bob Thornton Keifer Sutherland and more. I guess it needs to be noticed that we lost Donald Sutherland last week.

Sutherland is a definite loss. He was good in everything he did.

I watched Fritz Langās Siegfried tonight, a favorite I hadnāt seen in some time. I donāt enjoy the phony dragon so much, but there is a building dread that picks up in the Brunhild scene, around the 50 minute mark on the video linked herein.
Inns of Court in a Dunhill pot accompanied. Iām trying to muster the fortitude to watch Kriemhildās Revenge, but that might have to wait for a damp night this fall.
