The History of Swedish Film, from the Swedish Silent Film of Greta Garbo and Victor Sjostrom to Ingmar Bergman including Ase Kleveland and Cissi Elwin of the Svenska Filminstitutet.
Minutes ago I gave a handshake to my best man. He wasn't present at the wedding, which was city hall, its a little socialist. Let it suffice his name is Bobby and I've known him for more than eleven years. I said, "Always a handshake."
My Facebook is down, it could have been closed at the personal request of the Dean of UCLA; I have know way of knowing. On it was a way to post to Rod McKuen, the local art gallery and Swedish Periodicals. It's potential for conveying information to Great Britain I have no idea. It's closed.
A young lady was skipping, literally skipping down the street, full pace. Running into my arms would have blown my mind under the circumstances, those being I just shaved after nearly a week. I didn't want to leave the room after missing the date I'm just barely ok looking enough for Friday noontime. I really "didn't want to look".
If you were looking for it, I held this out for one reason- you weren't in the room.
On the film: during each new scene, the actress has a new dress. Each time the camera cuts- a new gown; out of the entire twentieth century, this film combined fashion modelling, sex-symbol and dramatic actress. It is more stunning than Lana Turner in Postman Always Rings Twice or Greta Garbo in Mata Hari. Pivotal to the film, in that I love the nudity, if I remember the camera dollies back when Ms. Taylor is over the shoulder nude. If it makes the script seconday, if it makes the acting run of the mill, it is what a movie star during that century was. She wears costume as softly as she delivers lines of dialog, and if there is modern camera work before the advent of the steady cam, if there is lighting before the change in filmstock, I can watch it later.
If you were in the room today, quite possibly your voice, not a compliment, an observation. If I'm mystified, your voice. Like Taylor's. If you were in the room today. Not your legs, it is a film of Elizabeth Taylor at that age nude in a sexual position, which is ineluctable, inordinate. If it never happened. If I never blew it.
