Well, so much for good intentions, my friends, for still and again
my life seems too busy to rise early and write, which is my way…
It’s my birthday week, so there has been a certain abandonment
going on regards to food and drink and hours kept.
Oh well…. it’s all a phase, right?

I have seen a few excellent films of late…

***Code 46…. with Tim Robbins (love) and Samantha Morton (love),
in a futuristic love story. Soft blurred lighting, closeup characters,
a few twists, but all in all quite remarkable.

***Ondine…. with Colin Ferrell… (yum) , romantic but not sappy,
beautifully filmed in Ireland.

And it’s not a spoiler to tell you it has a happy ending,
which is refreshing in a thoughtful film.

***Kiss Kiss Bang Bang… with Robert Downey Jr…( I love him,

but he bugs some people…incredible talent is like that…)
and Val Kilmer… It’s a smart, Snappy Dialogue sort of ride.
They quite obviously had a great time making this.

Stay for the credits, cause there is a really lovely song over the
Titles, and I was sitting there wondering…… and Yes!….
he Wrote it and is Singing it.

He is one amazing guy…. did you see Chaplin?

Oh, and i’m watching Mad Men’s latest season… I like the
characters, and the costumes and sets from that era.

Enjoy your week.  and yes, I’ll be back, if only to say Hello!
