* The Dresser was recommended to me by a friend in high school. Clearly I am a little behind. I don’t even know where he is anymore, so I can’t contact him and say “thank you!” and “I can’t believe it took me this long!”
* Sunday in the Park with George. Mandy Patinkin. Need we say more? I think not. (Although, since it hasn’t been that long since I last saw Into the Woods I was playing the “hey, it’s that guy!” game for a good portion of it.)
* Nightwatch. Once I sorted out the subtitle issue (Russian audio side, with English subtitles for the hearing impaired, because seriously, dubbing blows, plus, the subtitles are incorporated in a really fantastic way) I totally got into it. Utterly gorgeous. It is the first part of a trilogy, and that is clear, but I found it satisfying and not frustrating on its own.
* My Beautiful Laundrette. Did you know I had never seen this before? I -know-. Someone should have tied me up and remedied the situation -years- ago. Don’t you make the same mistake.
The Dresser was great! I could have told you to see it. If you were paying attention I recommended Nightwatch. I mean it had a clip from buffy in it, what more can you ask for?
I -was- told to see it! It just took me a while. Like twelve years.
And Nightwatch I had a pass for when it was in the theater, but I was going to have to sit in the front row or something so I just left. Too many movies, too little time.
Have you seen “A Man of No Importance?” As long as we are talking Albert Finney films.
I have not! Which is ridiculous, as it has Many Many People I Like Or At Least Find Interesting in it.
And it is a slashers delight. Put it on your netflix list now!
:salutes: Oh, wait. They don’t have it. It’s not out on DVD right now. My library doesn’t have it either. Woe!
Mandy!!
That’s all. I heart him. I love Sunday. Dot is one of my dream roles–one day I shall be in that show!
