I like to make long audio jokes for very very small audiences. I wore a washcloth on my head as a child.

I just want to go back in time to see him in Amadeus with Ian McKellen.

I never understood as a kid why watching the movie M*A*S*H felt like cool water on my brain. Or getting a multiball. Or sleeping in a room with 30 people talking.

Robert Altman rewards the scattered, fearful, hyperfocused mind and coyote ears. Oh how I love him. Who can listen to just one thing

Sayles was having trouble choosing who to cast as Ring Lardner (Studs was a lock as Fullerton) and someone came in with a photo and said, "uhhhh, John? John you might wanna look at this..."

Happy birthday to the man who figured out the fan was attached to the light switch!

Man, what a movie. Don't know why I woke up thinking about this scene!

Recovering from jetlag I woke up on the couch in NH having no idea who I was or when I was, *subsumed* with a dream about The 7th Guest.

I was at a dinner party, I bungled all the food, and was impersonating the magician saying, "can you teach me REAL magic?? Can you SHOW ME!"

Where are they now.

32 years ago today was opening night of Henry V at Wellington High. My first real play, just a handful of lines in my American accent. What people they were.

Wouldn't see any of them again, until this week.

Each cast is a kind of family and it never ever weakens or fades.

Maybe it was you who shared this, it often is. Brian Cox on doing Lear at a psych hospital. I read it and weep every time.

What actor's expression in a movie will stay with you the rest of your life?

I'm cozying up to the rules for Molly House tonight, but my goodness doesn't @wehrlegig.games make just the most beautiful things?

"but the STOOL, how did it taper? Of what gravity did it descend?"

Such a good photo, and what a strange and sad production process that movie was. Here's a better resolution one though!
