Will you step in line or release the glitch?
As a reminder to myself of the value of random film trivia, I seem to have convinced a kid to seek out Here Comes Mr. Jordan (1941) after he complimented me on my name and deprecated his own which I told him was a lovely name, the name of a river, the name of a psychopomp, and he perked up and asked if the movie was available in this region and I could tell him there was even a Criterion disc, since off the top of my head I had no idea where it was streaming, although the answer turns out to be all over the place. I hope he enjoys it. Comes with a free Edward Everett Horton. I have spent way too much of the day on the phone.

Fingers crossed!
The one for Blast Of Silence is especially good--I didn't know there was a graphic novel adaption of it, that's so cool!!
It's how I discovered the artist, several of whose comics with Ed Brubaker I read at the comics store I used to be able to walk to! [edit] The store is still there and I could still theoretically walk to it, I just moved several neighborhoods away.

What an excellent discovery! I really like this art style, and I can imagine that the movie looks great as a graphic novel.

It's a four-page adaptation of the opening sequence in Penn Station and all of my photos of it came out iffy, so fortunately the artist himself posted the first two. (He could have done the entire film. I'd have bought it.)
