September 11, 2003

Dreamed of visiting Copenhagen; starting to preach spontaneously like the crazy brother in Carl Dreyer's Ordet; hearing the CBC morning news in the basement of our Sackville house; taking a train to the United States but leaving my suitcase behind.

There wasn't so much to do at the campaign office today, just a little sign location stuff.  I brought home a sign and put it up.

Dinner was steak.

Saw Nell Shipman in Something New at the Cumberland.  That was a film to promote the Maxwell (later Chrysler) automobile.  So she and the hero drove their car through rugged terrain (a bit like in today's commercials!) with a posse of mounted Mexican bandits in hot pursuit.  Unfortunately, the bandits' horses were clearly moving faster than the car!  There was also a short titled A Boy, a Bear and a Dog, a title that explains itself.
