BillF Posted April 18, 2009 Report Posted April 18, 2009 Best wishes! Watch a good movie on your birthday! Quote
king ubu Posted April 18, 2009 Report Posted April 18, 2009 Thank you Bentsy! You know, I still have the Fargo 2CD set you sold me for such a good prize several years back... I got the Duke box in the meantime, but the notes and all in the 2CD set are too nice to give it away... Thank you to the limey brigade, too A generous bunch of guys there - good to have you around here! As for the movies, Bill, I caught "Les bas-fonds" last night (it's after Maxim Gorky's novel "Night Asylum" or whatever it's called in English). Not one of the best, but Gabin was great! No film today, I'm afraid, but maybe on Monday again ("La grande illusion", though I migth skip as I know it and have it on DVD, too). Also thanks to brownie, whose package with the St. Quentin jazz book reached me just in time - time to train my French a bit... Quote
king ubu Posted April 18, 2009 Report Posted April 18, 2009 btw, Billf - The Limey by Steven Soderberg is a mighty fine film, starring Terence Stamp! Do check it out if you get a chance! Quote

king ubu Posted April 18, 2009 Report Posted April 18, 2009 das heisst imfall gopferteckel! (aber schwiizertütsch schriibe gaht eh nöd... baaaaaseldiiitsch erscht rächt nöd, das verschaat ja kei sau.... he he he) ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Thanks a lot, Lon & marcello! And kinuta, thanks to you as well! I enjoy your contributions in the on-going film discussions! Myself, I find it harder and harder to actually say much of intelligence about films, but I still try my best. As for "Woman in the Dunes", I missed it when it shortly made the regular theatres here, in a re-edition of some sort, but it's out on DVD, and it seems to be quite the masterpiece, so eventually I'll get me a copy of it...
