Women in music...

4days (as of April 3) left to listen in: BBC Radio 3's Late Junction International Women's Day show. Fab crazy, beautiful, soulful music/sound and gobsmacking comments about how sound men still see women as aliens to their world. Amble Skuse a member of the Orchestra For Females And Laptops aka OFFAL recounts male attitudes on sound jobs and it was even suggested to another member that she use a male internet pseudonym! She very graciously admits he was trying to help..but..

There’s a sessions podcast (UK only) and a transcript that I still can’t find..


Plus ca change...

Someone say hello to the trees on Primrose Hill for me. And where art thou my crazy beautiful friend who dragged me out one night in ferocious thunder and lightning to hug you all?

Everyone should visit the Wallace Collection btw. A 1720s selfie...?

Did you once tear my ticket at the Almeida, Xavier?...- those were the days…

What...

...

Wahn! Überall Wahn!

where does an elephant go...?

It is so sad to read (already on the cards) that Toys R Us is set to finally close or sell all of its 885 stores in the US in the coming months, the BBC understands. That move would put about 33,000 jobs at risk. A wonderful idea that became another wonderful idea and…all those happy, enthusiastic, passionate staff- where will they all go?


The Elephant Song

Tears before bedtime, Zebedee

I am so so elated by actress Sally Hawkins' Oscar win. I think I cry more than you do! :) And so so pleased for The Shape of Water. It enlists every movie trope one can imagine. Then makes it real. That said: everyone should see Mike Leigh's Happy-Go-Lucky with Sally Hawkins. How Mr.Leigh makes the real real without a single movie trope (well…he does use a little music..;) is why he is a genius also.

Phantom Thread's amazing (she is! and I would argue the whole night that without her even with that amazingly handsome chap opposite her it just would not be the great movie that it is) Vicky Krieps was working to pay her bills in Europe (her words;) but there was Lesley Manville at the Oscars. Back onstage in London tomorrow Tuesday night in Eugene O'Neill's Long Day's Journey Into Night. She plays alongside some guy Jeremy Irons..who he;) Someone is going to film that for future generations aren't they!

I want to hide under the sheets and feel very humbled. And I hate that word 'cause it is so often used so cringe make-ingly. In the case of Mike Leigh actors it is the only true quality. And I imagine the same with Guillermo del Toro actors as well. 


We know what we are trying to forget.

i remember...

I can't ever forgive you for what you did Prime Minister Tony Blair. And I can't forgive myself either for some things. You were on the massive geo-politcal stage, though. That being said, THIS Brexit interview is the wisest thing that you ever said. As a point of protocol are you Prime Minister or former PM? I rather like that White House quality of always being President even after death. One of the many ironies of the U.S.A. You don't write the cheque this week and one's name is gone pronto from the marquee. But as President no matter what one did u live on forever.

London ghosts are jealous of Colbert....
