Am vergangenen Wochenende
Der Lolly Nite Film war in dieser Woche König der Fischer (DuFormal: Terry Gilliam, 1991), den späten, großen Robin Williams und Jeff Bridges mit. Ich denke, die einzigen Robin Williams Filme meine Kinder gesehen sind Flubber, Jumanji und Nacht im Museum (eins und zwei). Und vielleicht Hook (der eine von Dustin Hoffmans feinsten und lustigsten Aufführungen enthält, erinnert an Jack Lemmon im Großen Rennen in gewisser Weise).

While a film like Good Morning, VietNam would have been a better showcase of a manic Robin Williams performance, I have always had a soft spot for The Fisher King. Mercedes Rhuel is wonderful in it, as is Amanda Plummer, but I particularly love the late Michael Jeter's performance in this film as a transvestite who sings show tunes. Jeter also played the prisoner with the special mouse in The Green Mile.
Jeff Bridges was in the midst of a resurgence in his career with this film, not long after his comeback role in The Fabulous Baker Boys a few years earlier. His career appeared to be a series of stop/starts after his breakout role in Peter Bogdanovich's The Last Picture Show in 1971. Every few years, he would appear in a film that was well-praised and promised to launch him into the big leagues.
He spent most of the '70s and early '80s appearing in a variety of films, from the remake of King Kong in 1976, to the disastrous Heaven's Gate in 1980, to Tron in 1982.

Der Film jedoch , die wirklich den Ball für ihn ins Rollen gebracht hat Against All Odds , ein 1984 Remake des 1947 Robert Mitchum noir klassischen Out of the Past (Dir: Jacques Tourneur). Bridges fing bald an, regelmäßige Arbeit nach diesem Film zu beginnen, und er hatte seine zweite große Karriere, die mit den fabelhaften Bäcker-Jungen 1989 anstieg.
Im Fisher King ist Bridges gut gegossen und er macht einen tollen Job als Jack, ein Schock-Jock-Radio-Gastgeber, der sich plötzlich arbeitslos findet. Es hat ein paar makabere Terry Gilliam Berührungen, wie The Red Knight und einige Szenen in einem Asyl, aber insgesamt, ich dachte es einer der besseren Filme aus diesem Jahr. Tatsächlich, um es zu denken, 1991 gab uns auch die Stille der Lämmer, JFK, Thelma & Louise, Barton Fink und Cape Fear , um nur einige zu nennen. Und hier war ich, über die Naked Gun 2 1/2, Doc Hollywood, Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey und Harley Davidson & The Marboro Man nachzudenken.
Ich trug meine Longines Expeditionen automatisch;
Und meine Frau trug ihre neue Sinn 556A.
I got it for her to commemorate 20 years since she and I got together. And then I wrote about it as a "How I Met Your Mother"-type scenario for our kids to refer to in future. It's the next post down.
Monday
I've been looking at my typewriters lately. With plans to fix up our house, sell it and move into something larger (hopefully) sometime in the next 12 months, I'm going through my stuff with a view to reducing what will need to be packed up and moved when the time comes.
This Remington Envoy III will not go into our next house;
And I can think of two or three other typewriters that I just don't use and could probably go to somebody who will use them. eBay to the rescue!
So much to be done around here. However, now that the weather is fining up, all of these tasks seem easier to deal with.
And there are four or five assignments to tackle in the next month or two as well. But none of them are too daunting, so it shouldn't be a problem.
