Challenge. Find Reyner Banham's Hitchcock-like cameo appearance in this film he also narrates. What a fascinating historical document.

Chocolate and chips and a reposted tweet to celebrate the life of the much missed Sophie Watillon on her 60th birthday. I met her twice only and didn't really know all she had accomplished until much later. She was a great player, a generous teacher, and a warm person who touched a lot of people.
