Now I, too, want to watch those Pakula films again. Parallax View is actually still somewhat new to me because, for whatever reason, I never went to see it in the theater, and I never had it on any home video format. When Criterion released the Blu-ray, I scarfed it up and loved it, but I need to get a lot more familiar with it like I am with the other ones.

Having just spent a little time with Cradle, I tend to think of DR George's and his partner's character names as Mr. Mister and Mrs. Mister.

Yep.  Mr. and Mrs. Mister.

Okay, never mind.  I'll show myself out.

Today's errand, which I would have accomplished yesterday if not for an ungodly traffic jam caused by some unseemly road construction:

Petco.

And I think that's about it.

No. Second stop will be the dry cleaners, to drop off a pair of suit pants that I splashed either some Coke or coffee on, I forget which.

TOD:

I "second" Dr. Elmore's list, but will add "Barefoot in the Park" to the Fonda pile and "Eye of the Needle" to the Sutherland pile.

A bit of silliness occurred to me yesterday, and I should have posted it but thought it too silly.  Sadly, it became something of an ear worm overnight and I must get it out of my system:

DR GEORGE if your car was a pinball machine you would have won 1000 points!

Audible guffaw, not that I’m laughing at George’s problem, which I hope is just a sensor-tree or something that can easily be replaced.

Last night I watched the extras on the blu-ray of Dragonslayer, one of my favorite fantasy films. Tonight I'll watch the movie.

In 6th grade, our teachers showed us Dragonslayer. They had to warn us up front that there was a brief bit of nudity (very important in that it revealed a character was not who they said they were). We were so excited thinking we were going to see something dirty. It lasted like 2 seconds and we could barely see anything. Nowadays, the teachers would probably be fired.

Don’t Look Now is my fave Sutherland film.
But his 5-minutes in Little Murders is one of my fave scenes in any film.

I compiled this list of people whose garage sales Jane Lassner would not bother to stop at.

Incidentally I was on a kind of Hollywood tour once when I saw Charro pulling out of her driveway. I got a view into her garage. Lot of exercise equipment in there, is my memory.

We watched Little Big Man in class. The bathtub scene would probably have gotten that teacher fired.

We were never friends, but I was friendly with Peter MacNicol in the early 1980s. He was doing Crimes of the Heart on Broadway at the time.

Nice!

Thanks, Singdaw!  Last night, the costumer said the pants and vest might change, but we'll see.

I just left a message with the guy at the dealer.  Hopefully, he'll call back sooner rather than later.

Would it be OK to play the "Music of the Night" phantom chords underneath the last held note of "Silent Night"?
