  14. I think she was making her fourth appearance in one of his films. Penelope had only been in one previously, Carne Tremula aka Live Flesh, which, if you haven't seen, is, of course, recommended. Terry Gilliam double bill. 12 Monkeys (1995) Brazil (1985)

  18. Don Siegel double bill. Dirty Harry (1971) Better than all the sequels. Great score by Lalo Schifrin, best appreciated with headphones. Great evildoer in Andy Robinson, simply called The Killer in the credits. The Killers (1964) Pulp Fiction. Love the cast, the two hitmen are priceless , Saint Ronnie in his only role as a baddie, Angie Dickinson as 'the moll' , Cassavetes as the sucker.
  19. The typhoons have cleared off. Today is cloudy, rainy and very humid after a bright and clear early morning. Deafening chorus of crickets.
  20. Dixon Of Dock Green Doc Holliday Clementine Carter
  21. Clint Eastwood double bill. Flags Of Our Fathers (2006) Letters From Iwo Jima (2006) Both great but Letters From Iwo Jima is outstandingly good, maybe Clint's best film as a director.
  22. I know. Nobody I've spoken to has any enthusiasm and most wish they would just go away. I've been saying for ages that the decision to hold them in early August is crazy. The 1964 games were held in October when it's quite warm but dry and pleasant. Seems tv big bucks have dictated an August date. The average temperatures are 27-35C with very high humidity, heat island related early evening thunderstorms and the odd typhoon. Summer here is without doubt the very worst time to plan outdoor activity. For us residents it's a time to grit our teeth and long for October to roll round.
  23. One of our two local rivers is close to breaking it's banks. Evacuation preparation is advised in several areas near here. Not to worry, we are on high ground.
  24. Burning Spear Lance Henriksen Bengal Lancer
  25. Typhoon. Torrential rain.
