I'm about to be attentive company

[sovay]

Postscript: I have just inherited a reprehensible hat. It's my grandmother's rain hat. My mother has no idea how old it is, except definitely older than me. For close to a quarter of a century, she hasn't been able to bring herself to throw it out and earlier this evening it was pouring torrentially. We both remember my grandmother looking good in it, but my mother thinks that's because my grandmother basically looked good. If I hadn't folded the brim up, I'd look like a mushroom.

This image of you is made for movies.

Thank you! What kind of movie?

A movie about a mercurial inventor who can be affable but who has a sharp edge beneath the affability--sharp because it's honed on-- on-- things seen earlier in their life, I think.

What do they invent? Not sure. What other elements are at play? Again, not sure. There are many possibilities.
