Leslie Howard: "I thought you'd never come!"--Intermezzo
We drove over to Hollywood Canteen and rented six videos for the next week. I also picked up the book Dick Tracy: America's Most Famous Detective.
Went out and renewed my Canadian Opera Company subscription. I also subscribed to the Mirvish theatre season. (They're showing six plays, including A Couple of Blaguards, the two-man show that Frank and Malachy McCourt originated.)
Dinner was salmon.
Saw the video of Intermezzo, a melodrama about violinist Leslie Howard leaving his wife for accompanist Ingrid Bergman. (Since this was the 1930s, he returns to his wife in the end.) A piece of laughable hokum, overdone and shameless--especially the family dog! I again felt sleepy as I was watching it.
Was in bed by 20:00.
