March 25, 2006

"Our apologies, Mr. Judd, we were expecting a younger man."

"I used to be young.  So were all of us."

--Ride the High Country


Dreamed of going with my friend Puitak to see the Gene Tierney movie Leave Her to Heaven; seeing a version in which Gene was even more evil than in the actual film, as a double agent in World War II; finding it so unpleasant that we left early.


For dinner Moira made quiche. (I supplemented it with KFC afterward.)


Saw Sam Peckinpah's Ride the High Country (for the second time). The Cinematheque presented it with an introduction by a film historian.  It's a wonderful movie, full of adventure but also elegiac and funny, with veteran stars Randolph Scott and Joel McCrea in rare form.
