Dreamed of switching through TV channels delivering neighbourhood news; being held prisoner in a trailer by a gang of criminals; drawing a straight edge in red ink on a Manila envelope.
The parents went to Kingston for the weekend.
The section of St. Clair Avenue near our house had a salsa street festival with loud music.
Dinner was Arby's.
Saw two French crime movies directed by Jacques Becker. Touchez Pas au Grisbi ("hands off the loot") was really cool, up there with Rififi and Bob le Flambeur. Casque d'Or, set in "fin de siecle" Paris, with an unexpected romantic sensibility, was sort of a Max Ophuls-style film noir. Simone Signoret gives a great sexy performance.
I've been finding Everything and More rather hard to follow.
