And to take the fall and to take the feeling

[sovay]

My health appears to have collapsed for the new year, which I furiously resent, but I learned tonight that Norway's first film directed by a woman was also its first film noir: Edith Carlmar's Death Is a Caress (Døden er et kjærtegn, 1949). I very definitely want to watch that.

Being sick is never fun, but in winter it always feels extra ominous. I hope Spatch is healthy enough to bring you hot soup in bed (if it's an illness amenable to hot soup), and that you can rest and heal.

And that's another that I like the sound of just from the title!

Thank you. We shared a bagel with cream cheese and lox before he left for work, and shared the lox with the little cats, and that was good.

It's a terrific title! For pure pulp value, it's right up there with Kiss the Blood Off My Hands (1948).
