Spent a morning at the #Birrarung today on #Wurundjeri country with great #FirstNations guide Tully Gibbons. The river was up and the commentary was generous and extended with great warmth and kindness at the #AbbortsfordConvent -always think of those ripped from family at places like this.

Sam Shepard and the iconic ending of Paris, Texas:
The story of how 'Paris, Texas' almost ended differently
Wim Wenders' 1984 masterpiece 'Paris, Texas' could've ended differently if not for the director's pleas for Sam Shephard to help him finish the screenplay.

Sartre gives a lecture on existentialism in Brussels and one Iris Murdoch is in the audience.
From her notes, this was clearly a version of the now rather famous lecture he was to give in Paris five days later.
