Donald Sutherland has died.

Oh, no.

SO many great Donald Sutherland movies.

TOD: My favorite Tom Cruise movies are Rain Man and Jerry Maguire. I'm not a big action movie fan so I haven't seen a lot of his later films.

RIP Donald Sutherland.

It is apparently Peter Filichia's birthday. I don't know him and I haven't read very much by him - but isn't he the one who used to have a column right here?

Anyway, I always remember the one time I met him. It was the day I met BK and some of you in person for the first time, at the Drama Book Shop for BK's Album Produced By... event. Someone introduced me to him, and it was funny because at first he was convinced that he already knew me from somewhere. (He didn't.) He was interesting and supremely nice.

It is only 85 degrees here. Most of our afternoon walk is in the shade, and with the nice breeze we have our walk was lovely.

I like being warm enough to wear shorts and a t-shirt.

I keep reading "Jacques Tall Short." Because I'm weird that way.

Enjoyed B's discourse on the writing of the daily notes in today's Notes very much.

singdaw · « **Reply #104 on:** June 20, 2024, 03:06:51 PM »

Also thought DR elmore3003's review was really terrific.

Happy birthday, Peter. Had lunch with him many years ago. Nice man. Enjoy his books and columns.

Had a bacon cheeseburger for food. From a place I've ordered from before - it was okay this time - been better. I ordered onion rings and three chicken tenders, too, to reach the price point for a 30% discount to kick in - so, it basically cost the same as burger and onion rings. The latter were the WORST - I've had them before and they were very good. These were a shambles - overcooked and falling apart. Didn't eat many. The chicken tenders were so salty they were gross - and I say that as a true salt person. I ate two and tossed the third and feel gross right now.

Keith also did Wordle in three. Like Vixmom he did it quickly.

Some time back Peter F. friended me on FB. He doesn't know me and we've never met. But I wished him a Happy Birthday.

Got a new live recording of Peter Grimes from the library.

They're releasing a pricey box set of Caligula with, supposedly, 5 different versions/edits. I've never seen it.

Enjoy! I hate the Met's current production.

With cast members popping out of "advent calendar" windows in the set.

Watching Mary, Hitchcock’s one German language film. It was filmed at the same time ss the English Murder!, which was about a transvestite murderer. The German version is a lot of fun. And the sound seems to be a little better.

Five ways to hate a movie?

On This Day in 1975, Jaws was released in American movie theaters.
