    I loved Jeremy Brett.

    I still haven't seen a single full episode of the Sherlock Holmes series he starred in, but I loved Brett's performances in An Ideal Husband, The Picture of Dorian Gray, and Rebecca. I prefer his performance as Maxim de Winter to Olivier's.

    Will there be a Eurovision Song Contest in the year 2111?

    Try to see the first series; the second (with a visibly older Holmes and another actor playing Watson) isn't so good. And sadly Brett's health problems are all too obvious. But in that first series, the astonishing voice, the razor-sharp face and his perfect portrayal are just

    Of course he said himself that becoming obsessed with the character was what pushed him into manic depression.

    I agree with you about Maxim de Winter and Olivier.

    Yay, though it's more a matter of me being glad that it exists than anything else, apart from your ToToToT entries about it, which are educational and always welcome.

    Questions plucked from a 1980 collection of Pauline Kael film reviews by an extremely hostile reviewer:

    - "Have you ever bought a statue of a pissing cupid?"
    - "Who is this hitchhiker on the road of life?"
    - "How can the Count’s arrival and his plea for a hasty marriage have any vibrations?"
    - "Were these 435 prints processed in a sewer?"
    - "How can the novelist have pain in his bowels when Providence has no bowels?"
    - purple Might "_________________________" have been included in this list of choice quotations?
    - purple I take Renata Adler's side on this one. Sorry.

    Gravad Lax med hovmästarsås. Pyttipanna would've received my vote but for the pickled beetroots.
