How did you see “East Lynne” and “The White Parade” ? Did you go to UCLA to view the films?

Actually, I haven’t seen either. If you read the various years, you’ll see I discuss the films and how they ended up getting nominated, but I have yet to see either of those two.

I stumbled upon your blog and I just have to say that I love your book reviews! Great taste in literature and film! Our lists are comparable. I’ll keep on checking your blog. :)

If you think that Margaret Atwood is Canada’s finest novelist you should check out Cordelia Strube, author of eight bleakly funny urban edgy novels. I would recommend either The Barking Dog or Lemon to start with.

Hi,
I’m making a presentation and was searching online for cute photos to spruce up the slides. May I ask permission to reuse the photo of your son, dated 10 Oct 2004?
Thanks so much.
