    What are You Watching?

    "Notes On a Scandal". 2006, with Judi Dench/Cate Blanchett. Let's just say Ms. Dench puts on a clinic in this and shows why (with the right script) she can easily stand with Olivier, Gielgud, O'Toole or any actor we call the top of the heap. Don't be fooled by the "chick-flick" label. This...

    Finally Made Peace With Forward Cants

    Freehands. Most of them, anyway. Thinking outside the box is one thing. Executing it well is quite another.
