It began pretty recently, so I’m not going to moan along the lines of “when was he gonna get around to telling us,” but out feisty and knowledgeable commenter who goes by only “bill” has started a blog, and it looks to be a winner. It’s called “The Kind of Face You Hate,” after a classic line from the once-obscure avant-noir Blast of Silence, and it has a particular emphasis on horror pictures and crime fiction, both of which are better than all right by me.
In less delightful news, the man also known as Mr. R has “tagged” me with a “meme,” by which I am required (well, not required, but it would be overly churlish to refuse, as those of you familiar with all internet traditions would know) to list and describe 12 movies I haven’t seen. I was hoping to get a little downtime this weekend, but no…
Something ought to go up reasonably soon. In the meantime, the still here is from one of the twelve. Do you know what it is?
Is it HISTORY IS MADE AT NIGHT? That’s quite a movie!
Wow, thanks, Glenn. I didn’t tell you before because I didn’t want to sound like a too much of a blatant self-promoter, so I had to bide my time until I could sound like a more furtive self-promoter.
Anyway, sorry for cutting into your downtime, and I predict I will have heard of none of your 12.
Correct, D. The just-completed post is above.
yes, I do!
If you are Triple-AAA league I am Little League, but realizing I have seen even one movie you haven’t cheers me up a bit. Girish lent that one to me on VHS a while ago, bless him.
I’m supposed to be working on this meme too damn it.
“Fiesty and knowledgable”?
Okay.
Can’t argue with the name, anyway.
