But what I keep coming up with is that he must have been pretty important, generally, in the creation of the movie. An important part of the process of creating. I keep trying to picture the flick with someone else in that role - and I can't - just because I think his humor (and his "kind" of humor) is so "elemental" to the entire creation of this - apart from his actual acting. The main characters are all real strong "cogs" and I can only imagine they had a BLAST making this. Hope so! THEN at the end I realized the "bond company goon" or whatever they kept calling him, was BUD CORT! LOL! I sure didn't realize it. This movie drew me in so much by the end, that I wanted to be part of it. I wanted to be in their midst. Not so much on board as part of the "crew"....but part of the "movie". Maybe the shipboard experience in some way parallels the film making experience. Both huge tasks. I got a real sense of "on the bus" with this. And that's always warm and fuzzy (and so amazingly hip), to me. ;) Em - --- Jerry Notaro wrote: > Ah. Bill Murray. Another maligned artist. So let me ask about Lost In > Translation.

It's too nuanced for people that are used to sound-bites and action flicks where there's a lot going on, but zero plot and no subtlety. A lot was conveyed in that film through a look on someone's face, and you have to be attuned to that sort of thing. (I did NOT fall asleep during that one.)

"The other blonde turns and says "Helloooooooooo, can you see Florida......????? CAR TROUBLE A blonde pushes her BMW into a gas station. She tells the mechanic it died. After he works on it for a few minutes, it is idling smoothly. She says, "What's the story?" He replies, "Just crap in the carburetor" She asks, "And, how often do I have to do that?" SPEEDING TICKET A police officer stops a blonde for speeding and asks her very nicely if he could see her license. She replied in a huff, "I wish you guys would get your act together. Just yesterday ! you take away my license and then today you expect me to show it to you!" RIVER WALK There's this blonde out for a walk. She comes to a river and sees another blonde on the opposite bank. "Yoo-hoo!" she shouts, "How can I get to the other side?" The second blonde looks up the river then down the river and shouts back, "You ARE on the other side." KNITTING A highway patrolman pulled alongside a speeding car on the freeway. Glancing at the car, he was astounded to see that the blonde behind the wheel was knitting! Realizing that she was oblivious to his flashing lights and siren, the trooper cranked down his window, turned on his bullhorn and yelled, "PULL OVER!" "NO!" the blonde yelled back, "IT'S A SCARF!" BLONDE ON THE SUN A Russian, an American, and a Blonde were talking one day. The Russian said, "We were the first in space!" The American said, "We were the first on the moon!" The Blonde said, "So what? We're going to be the first on the sun!" The Russian and the American looked at each other and shook their heads. "You can't land on the sun, you idiot! You'll burn up!" said the Russian. To which the Blonde replied, "We're not stupid, you know. We're going at night!" IN A VACUUM A blonde was playing Trivial Pursuit one night. It was her turn. She rolled the dice and she landed on Science &Nature. Her question was, "If you are in a vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?" She thought for a time and then asked, "Is it on or off?" FINALLY, THE BLONDE JOKE TO END ALL BLONDE JOKES! A girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new dogs, and asked her what their names were. The blonde responded by saying that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex. Her friend said, "Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that?" "HELLOOOOOO," answered the blond.

Love, Patti ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 19 May 2005 09:21:20 -0700 From: "Mark Scott" Subject: HDCD - The Blue Code I have been comparing my HDCD and non-HDCD copies of Blue. Like yours, Mike, the HDCD does not have the HDCD logo on the disc itself, only on the back of the cardboard insert in the lower left hand corner beside the Reprise logo. The number you give below is the same on both copies. There are some different numbers etched on the cd itself if you look at the playable side in the margin between the playing surface and the bit of the label that shows through in the center. They are very tiny numbers and I had to use a magnifier to read some of them. The chief difference is in one number. The non-HDCD copy has the number 1 2038-2 SRC**08. On the HDCD copy this number reads 1 2038-2 RE-1 09 There is also a Y6053 on the HDCD copy. As far as I can decipher, this means that Joni travelled to Tibet in 1972 while she supposedly was up on the coast of BC. She met the Dalai Llama and they had a torrid affair. Joni went back to BC and 9 months later a child was born. If you take a vinyl copy of For the Roses and play 'Let the Wind Carry Me' backwards, you will learn that the child was spirited away to Pittsburgh.

Back when I was working at the Ministry of Revenue, where we were administering a grants program that provided a property tax rebate for senior citizens, a woman called asking for some help completing her form. The forms had gone out preprinted with someone's name on, based on property tax rolls. In the case of married couples, whoever's name appeared first on the roll (alphabetical order) would already be printed on the form. She had come to the section where you were supposed to enter the name of the "spouse" and she was all confused. First of all, she pronounced it "spoose" to rhyme with "moose." Second, her name was preprinted on the form already, and she had NO IDEA how to fill in the "spoose" field. When we told her to put her husband's name in that part, she got even MORE confused. "But wait a minute. Aren't *I* the spoose?"

Having said that I also like The Life Aquatic -- more for the alternative Manhattan universe that Wes Anderson created as much as the movie itself. His movies can be off-putting especially if one does not buy his "conceit" or the way he redefines a self-indulgent movie for us. He dares us to bring an aspect we have not seen before that often lashes at those critics that themselves criticize conventions (if that makes sense). I like TLA for similar reasons I like "The Royal Tenenbaums" -- the well-acted ensemble cast, the use of music as a cinematic device, the quirky characters that do not endear themselves (at least for me) in a self-conscious way (the way J.Lo's character in "Monster-in-Law" tries but fails ultimately) and the fact that it connects to me in non-representational ways. I dont like Bill Murray though. A lot of my friends in grad school like him a lot and the movies he appeared in. I am sadly not one of them. I find his acting a tad too mannered and a tad too self-consciously aware that he is "acting". Not the gospel truth but its just my biased opinion. I like Sofia Coppola's "Lost in Translation" and I could feel the lived loneliness of Scarlett Johansson's character and what it means to be alienated in a culture vastly different from yours. Bill Murray is okay in that film and thought that, Oscar nomination or not, I like him better than Sean Penn in "Mystic River". But then I just like "Lost in Translation" a lot as a film and as an auteurial work that I am prejudiced about it. In Life Aquatic" there is this hilarious sequence where a group of Filipino pirates threw mayhem to Zissou's ship. The Filipinos were speaking Tagalog and the things they were talking about has nothing to do with what is going on in the screen. Two guys with grim faces were talking about babies while brandishing a weapon. Then when a member of the Zissou team who reportedly "spoke Filipino" talked, he was talking in a mix of 3 or 4 Philippine dialects. I don't know if Wes Anderson wanted it to be a parody of foreign-sounding and othered people or he intentionally meant for these guys to speak whatever they want to speak regardless of the situation but it is funny just the same. By the way have you all seen Todd Solondz's "Palindromes" yet? I want to know how the Americans among us relate to the explicitness of identity politics that Solondz cinematically captured in that film. My two cents (does it have currency still?) Joseph in Chapel Hill np: Cleo Laine - My Favorite Year - "Woman to Woman" Jerry Notaro a icrit: Ah. Bill Murray. Another maligned artist. So let me ask about Lost In Translation. I heard so much bad about it that I waited a long time to see it on DVD. I thought it was by far the best movie I saw in years. Anyone else like that one? Seems like anyone who actually takes the time to write believably paced life stories are doomed to be called boring. I just can't imagine anyone cast so perfectly in the part than him.

Like yours, Mike, the HDCD does not have the HDCD logo on the disc itself, only on the back of the cardboard insert in the lower left hand corner beside the Reprise logo. The number you give below is the same on both copies. There are some different numbers etched on the cd itself if you look at the playable side in the margin between the playing surface and the bit of the label that shows through in the center. They are very tiny numbers and I had to use a magnifier to read some of them. The chief difference is in one number. The non-HDCD copy has the number 1 2038-2 SRC**08. On the HDCD copy this number reads 1 2038-2 RE-1 09 There is also a Y6053 on the HDCD copy. As far as I can decipher, this means that Joni travelled to Tibet in 1972 while she supposedly was up on the coast of BC. She met the Dalai Llama and they had a torrid affair. Joni went back to BC and 9 months later a child was born. If you take a vinyl copy of For the Roses and play 'Let the Wind Carry Me' backwards, you will learn that the child was spirited away to Pittsburgh. At the proper moment, this child will come forward. But the child is not the successor to the Dalai Llama and it is prophesied in the de-coded liner notes to THOSL that this offspring will journey to Boston and name Bob Murphy as the true successor to the Dalai Llama. An age of peace, prosperity and a reverence of all things blue will begin and last for 104 years when the wise and aged Smurfy Llama will make a hejira from Boston to Florida to escape an unexpected attack from the city of New York.

Bill Murray is one of my favourite actors, and I've loved him in every movie I've seen - including Lost In Translation. And I read/heard that Sofia Coppola wanted him and only him for this part (and went to a lot of trouble to "court" him), which makes me wonder if she didn't write it with him in mind? I agree that he was certainly perfectly cast in this role, and played it to perfection. And he showed that he is more than a one-trick-pony, ie. capable of much deeper roles than those of the Ghostbuster-type. Although saying that, one of my favourite performances was his role in Caddyshack. He stole the show IMO.

I kept waiting for the guitarist to break into "Suicide Is Painless" by Louden Wainwright III like the minstrel in "M*A*S*H" but he never did. :) Near the beginning, the Cousteau-like captain is taking his own film audience on a tour of his ship "The Belfontane" (not the Calyso, eh?). He steps quickly past the chemistry lab full of unused beakers, bunsen burners, scales, saying only, "This is where we do the scientific experiments, and so on. Next, we have the galley! Here you'll see some of the MOST ADVANCED equipment on the ship! We can prepare anything from Lobster to Crepe Souzette. The Belfontane has our own pastry chef. The sauna was designed for us by a Chinese scientist who worked on their nuclear and space programs." I love sight gags and movies within movies.
