Mary Magdalene, who thinks her boyfriend Judas(?) has taken up with another woman: "What is her name? Tell me, old Frog, or I choke thee!"--The King of Kings
Dreamed of the comic strip Secret Agent Corrigan.
Hope I'm not getting a cold!
Saw the DVD of the silent Biblical epic The King of Kings. It was directed by Cecil B. DeMille, so the first scene shows Mary Magdalene slumming in a "den of iniquity," and the Crucifixion scene includes a big, destructive earthquake.
Dinner was McDonald's.
Saw D.W. Griffiths' silent melodrama True Heart Susie at the Cinematheque. It was accompanied by a Tom Gunning lecture about its star Lillian Gish. She was a radiant actress who did incredible things with her eyes!
