Just rewatched it—the first time since I saw it in the theatre. Shows its age in spots, but marvelously cast and directed. Every movie or show made since 1983 about an eccentric town owes a lot to Bill Forsyth.

Monsieur Hulot’s Olympics

… and mine

A Corny Concerto (1943) is one of my all time favorites. It hits all the right notes: great music, gorgeous artwork and Bugs in a bra. #TCMParty

Bob Clampett too.

Philip Roth, The Plot Against America (2004) :

Would love to see a list of 10 weird (in the best way!) Westerns.
Certainly: Woman They Almost Lynched, No Name on the Bullet, Terror in a Texas Town and the greatest of them all, Johnny Guitar. Any others?

When I lived in Chicago, Julie Christie was my winter role model.

I’m so hardhearted that few celebrity deaths rattle me (it’s practically a game with my friends to ask if I care). But I’ve been watching O’Hara for 40 years and was known as “Margaret Meehan” among friends because of my high school quiz show past. This one’s a bummer.
