"What do they know of heaven and hell, Cathy, who know nothing of life?"--Wuthering Heights
Got up at 10:48.
Dreamed of our New Brunswick cottage; visiting Hampstead in London; visiting a spa in Mexico and meeting Salma Hayek as Frida Kahlo; the Cole Porter song "You Do Something to Me" (Evil Under the Sun had a Cole Porter soundtrack); walking outdoors at night and starting to sing the song, attracting people's attention (there were a lot of other people out walking at night.
Saw the 1934 movie of Anne of Green Gables, starring Anne Shirley (who changed her name to match her character here!). It was pretty Hollywood: the second half didn't have much to do with the book.
Printed out my matchmaker.com essay questions to show Dr. Hassan.
Dinner was steak.
Saw William Wyler's Wuthering Heights. A triumph of Hollywood craft (though Merle Oberon is on the insipid side, not in Laurence Olivier's league), but for sheer passion I prefer Luis Bunuel's looser Mexican remake. The feel-good ending is pretty cheesy.
Saw the famous "College" episode of The Sopranos. Really, I find the episode barely watchable. Tracey's life is bad, then it gets worse, then it's over.
