C'mon a my house...

I know a blog without pictures can hardly be considered a blog. Just think of the earlier picture of Sir Ian during the following.

Okay, you probably missed it. Bet you didn't even record it. But you can't say you weren't invited.

We watched all three hours (with one brief PBS commercial break) and I thought it was outstanding. The fifteen minutes of comments by Ian McKellen following the show were also quite interesting, particularly his insight into Lear's relationship to God (or the gods).

If you feel in a repentant mood and would like to see it you can always come see us. We have it on "My Recordings" along with such gems as "My Fair Lady", "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers", "Hamlet" (Olivier version), "Some Like It Hot", "Tootsie", "2001 A Space Odyssey",
"Brigadoon", "Lawrence of Arabia", "Yankee Doodle Dandy", "The Lost Weekend" and some episodes of "Curious George". All with no commercials.

And by the way, or should that be BTW? ---There WERE explosions. I always watch with "Closed caption for the hearing impaired" on and in the midst of the big battle scene the closed caption said "EXPLOSIONS". Couldn't help laugh out loud in view of comments on my earlier blog. Now aren't you sorry you missed it?

If it's ever repeated "Don't miss it if you can."
