Chinatown, London Underground, you know it all sounds good to me
It is undoubtedly a sign of improvement that in just the last week I have begun to dream and remember it for the first time in months, but now I get to be irritated that I am not camped out at the Harvard Film Archive for their summer repertory series of quota quickies and British B-movies, absolutely none of whose stars seem to exist in my waking life, let alone their directors or scripts. Most of them were crime melodramas. None had been recovered from the early filmography of Michael Powell. It has been so nearly impossible for me to watch movies, I appreciate my brain trying to make up the obvious loss.

It feels optimistic!

Aw, it's a crying shame! I mean, you wouldn't be able to get them anyway, of course, we know how this goes - but that's not consolation, lol, sorry. *hugs*
(Btw, the Ealing Rarities Vol you recced to me for one of the films, I got for my b'day. I can't remember which of the 4 films it was you recced because lol memory what is that, but I'm guessing it was Cage of Gold? Anyway, it is hot and I am full of cold, so watching is not likely to be very soon, but will happen. Looks like an interesting selection, and I usually enjoy the experience, even when actual film quality varies.)
If it makes you feel any better, in the meantime, Film is Fabulous have made another exceptionally rare TV recovery, this time of an anthology I hadn't come across before, but something I thought you'd like to hear about, if you hadn't already - a Late Night Horror ep.
(Also, in new film that does admittedly sound v interesting, it is apparently more reasonable to expect someone else to play Jeremy Northam in passing than for him to turn up again anywhere.)

Nonetheless! I shall imagine they are only normally inaccessible. I will hear about them airing on TPTV.

Oh, cool! I did recommend that one! Happy post-birthday! I wish I could send you our weather as a present. It's 52 °F at the moment and persistently raining.

I had not heard about it and I am delighted to. I hav in fact heard very little about this series.

(Oh, good grief.)

Ruth Gordon!
I read reviews of that documentary when it premiered at Sundance!
I look forward to your thoughts if you share them.

Thank you! Looking at it, it did seem the most likely, judging by cast and things, but the blurb didn't ring any bells from whatever you said. (But, lol memory, as I said.)

It seems that until this discovery, there was only one half episode to talk about, apart from sighing at burninated TV.
