I was hoping for a nice quiet day at home but I am seeing the matinee of Subways Are For Sleeping. My Guys & Dolls and How to Succeed . . . colleague Jason works for the Jule Styne office and he's behind most of this Subways restoration. He had offered me a ticket for Saturday matinee, but I am committed to see The Great Cat Massacre that my friend Ella Martin is directing. She and I will have a nosh after the show.

Ooh ooh.. Chas and I are going to,see the Sinday matinee

My oh my...

Listening to Mr. Johnny Mathis - one of the two-fer Mercury albums he did in the 1960s.

Well, Cinema Paradiso was nice, the theater was fine, and the (adult) audience was attentive throughout (it was the long director's cut), but I was disappointed to find they were running a Blu-ray and not a regular DCP (Digital Cinema Package).

BUT...

The Blu-ray performed beautifully. I remember being told by a couple of folks on Home Theater Forum that a good Blu-ray transfer can hold its own when properly projected to a medium sized theater screen, depending on distance, of course...and it did indeed. So for the most part, all was well, because this was nevertheless a night out in an unusual but real, if not huge, theater. I can explain more tomorrow.

I wish I liked the long version of Cinema Paradiso, but I don't - the shorter version was much better and what we all fell in love with. The long version was lambasted by folks originally and not a hit, which is why he cut it down, and voila, a hit. Still listening to the smooth tones of Mr. Mathis on Mercury.

Good evening, all.

It’s been a long day.

For as long as I've had both versions sitting here at home, this happens to be the first time I've watched the long version. I was almost glad when the person giving a little curtain speech announced it, because now I was captive and would "have to" watch it and take it in, whether I would have previously chosen to or not. So it did its job. And now I have seen it. And I totally agree.

Ushered for the dance company Complexions. Quite good.

Mourned the passing of/celebrated the life and legacy of Harvey Schmidt.

Have already written the Harvey portion of the notes. Wanted to get that out of the way, as I knew it would be long.

Is "crap" considered a swear word to some? It isn't to me, but I'm never clear on exactly what is or what isn't. If lies come in different colors, then surely other words do, too.

Not to me.

DR JANE one look at our budget would tell you that renting any equipment would be out of the question.

I am trying to think about a member of my family who might need a television and buying one for $150 or so.....option B. After the reunion, it could give it to someone.

You are very nice.

If you can't think of anyone who needs a tv maybe the committee can put out a request to borrow a tv.

DR Jeanne have you seen Bruno Cramer as MAIGRET?

I should have checked my email tonight and responded. It was nothing serious, just rude.

Who sent a rude e-mail to darling Jane? Names. I'm very close to sending a rude e-mail of mine own - kind of at that point - I was calmed down for a while, but as the days go by I'm just too irritated and should probably get it off my chest before a final rupture.

Listening to the two CD complete Giant soundtrack. Tiomkin is a very busy composer, if you get my meaning. Still I like it - sound isn't brilliant but you can't everything.

Who sent Jane a rude e-mail? Why I oughta...

I'm on my computer and have been converting a video file in the hopes of making a playable DVD.

bk · « **Reply #116 on:** March 01, 2018, 11:15:52 PM »

That is so exciting George. No how about converting some posts.

George · « **Reply #117 on:** March 01, 2018, 11:15:53 PM »

It's an MKV file and I'm converting it to an MP4 file.

And I wish to know who sent Jane a rude e-mail.
