FOLKS! If Cedars-Sinai felt Curry's in-house PT had progressed as far as it could & he would likely not walk, recommended bed-based PT to prevent atrophy & that's what insurance accepted, that's fine. Not trying to wage war here, just felt a follow-up would be an essential clarification!

Would definitely have appreciated a follow-up along those lines! "You were close to walking, and... I'm sorry, what?"

The sort of thing we might learn in a follow-up question, for sure!

Enjoyed the New Yorker interview with Tim Curry, a free-wheeling conversation in which there were several sensitive questions about his paralyzing stroke. But oh my goodness, why was there no follow-up at all to this staggering answer? www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Screenshot of text from the interview:

You’ve always been an incredibly physical performer: your strut during “Sweet Transvestite” in “Rocky Horror,” or the way you run around unfurling the mystery at the end of “Clue.” Do you still feel that in your body? Does that live somewhere in you still?

I think it does, but it’s angry. My mobility is angry to get out. But it’s not happened yet. I do a certain amount of physical therapy. I did a whole bunch of it at Cedars-Sinai, and I got very close, I think, to walking. That was tantalizing. For insurance reasons, I had to withdraw. And I have a visiting physical therapist now, but I can only really do exercises from my bed, which is pretty pathetic. It’s not going to get me walking, I don’t believe.

[I have underlined the sentence "For insurance reasons, I had to withdraw."]

Vinegar Syndrome has done so much for film history, their preservation work is invaluable. 🧡

Little puppy with the peeny-sticky-stick

An adorable teeny little long-hair chihuahua chewing a Bully Stick. He's laying on his belly on the ground, holding the stick with his two front paws, the stick is jammed into his mouth, distending his cheek. The photo is very cute.

It's not Queequeg's fault, he was alone and Mrs. Lowe didn't stock enough food for the inevitable. She was warned! x-files.fandom.com/wiki/Queequeg

The Final Terror is not a *great* film, but this is in NO way a bad film. Think of how costly it was to shoot film in 1983, especially remote, with this INSANE amount of coverage. The cinematography and camera work in this movie is marvelous. #TheLastDriveIn

The writing is fairly crap, but the performances (from solid actors!) are really good and the camera work is wonderful.
