I was on my way somewhere and then there's a blur

I am hoping the evening will improve when I meet [personal profile] rushthatspeaks for The Bigamist (1953) at the Brattle Theatre, but I've had something of a rocky day so far; then I got home and [personal profile] spatch read me the news that 192-year-old Faneuil Hall landmark Durgin-Park is being shuttered by its corporate masters with barely a week's notice. The FilmStruck deal, restaurant-style. He has some choice (and all-caps) words on Twitter. I am just remembering that the first time I ever ate at Durgin-Park, I found a tiny slipper shell in my oyster stew. I still have it. I bet the rich taste really good with a side of baked beans.

[edit] The Bigamist was great. I am so behind on writing about movies. I wish Ida Lupino had directed a lot more.

Oh, no, that's just rubbish. :-/

I am glad the film was good, though!
