We're home for the holidays, briefly - we're dropping off laundry and picking up clean clothes, (we're heading to the annual meeting of the ACME Corporation's board of directors. I never know if one of the largest shareholders, Wile E. Coyote will show up or not?)
I brought back another Christmas gift from our travels. (I may find another one during the weekend.)
According to Rosemary Clooney, Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye's "Sisters" performance was not originally in the script. They were clowning around on the set, and director Michael Curtiz thought it was so funny that he decided to film it. In the scene, Crosby's laughs are genuine and unscripted, as he was unable to hold a straight face due to Kaye's comedic dancing. Clooney said the filmmakers had a better take where Crosby didn't laugh, but when they ran them both, people liked the laughing version better.
Here's another interesting list of the best films of 2018 from Andrew Rivard - an aspiring film editor from L.A. -
I really hope Mr. Rivard is finally a working editor on Los Angeles at this point - his work shows.
And on this last Friday of 2018, as I always say that it's 5 PM somewhere, please remember to drink til up drop this weekend and don't drive. The life you save may be yours (and mine.)
Demand Euphoria!
