sheila, you totally turned me on to Kim Morgan! She’s so great. This impossibly cool babe with this stunning film history at her (no doubt) polished fingertips. Such a great writer, with such a keen insight into the darkness and subtext beneath so many great films.
I’m going to pause now and count how many times I’ve used the word ‘great’.
I know! I mean, that Richard Widmark is her favorite actor. Come on!! But her writing and insights are what really hooked me – it’s down to earth, but really smart, full of context. Great stuff!
Oh, and I owe you an email!! :)
Ooops! I said ‘great’ too!
Looking forward to it! Great!
