I have a to-be-read pile that's 3-4 years long. Luckily, I read "Finding Dorothy" by Elizabeth Letts - the book that was on the top of my list! Who was the real Dorothy? Is it worth the read? Click on this link to find out and more: chick-who-reads-everything.com/2025/11/24/f... #booksky
@musicalhell.bsky.social Would you consider riffing on the film "Heisser Sommer?" It's basically a happy, East German version of "West Side Story." Here's a clip from it: youtu.be/5WydiSc5bBc?...

Laurence Olivier scored his first Oscar nomination for playing Heathcliff in the 1939 version of "Wuthering Heights." What do you think about his performance? #filmsky

Today, I begin my 12-part series of reviewing every available adaptation of "Wuthering Heights." I'll do this once a month. Let's start with the 1939 film starring Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon. Is it worth watching? Click on this link to find out: chick-who-reads-everything.com/2025/11/17/w...

Carl and I had a great opportunity to see a new Michigan-made movie called "The Daughters of the Domino" at the Hook & Ladder Theater Company tonight. Meeting director Jesse McAnally of @cheesewheelcast.bsky.social was also wonderful since he has appeared on the @adaptmepodcast.bsky.social twice.
