Can't say enough about this beautiful villa! Ocean views. Easy drive by Maserati to the beach and downtown St. Tropez. Grounds are lush and pool is a perfect place to drown an old friend after you have sex with his 18-year old daughter. ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐ LA PISCINE (THE SWIMMING POOL) (1969, Jacques Deray) youtu.be/qEGxhK9MFxM

If, even under hypnosis, one can't be induced to do something one doesn't want to do, the question then becomes: what do we really want to do? As if in a trance, we all watched CURE (1997, Kiyoshi Kurosawa). A remarkable film, and as usual we held nothing back in our discussion. Yes, this is a spoiler alert! youtu.be/g8j8bspORdk

A 27-minute, dialogue-free jewel heist scene is a highlight of LE CERCLE ROUGE (THE RED CIRCLE) (1970, Jean-Pierre Melville). Some of us also liked Alain Delon's mustache—though this proved controversial. youtu.be/lPYYSd7d-bY

As the clock runs out on my Netflix DVD subscription (they shut it down next month) we just mailed back YOUNG ADAM. Not streaming anywhere! 2003 feature from David Mackenzie (PERFECT SENSE, HELL OR HIGH WATER). Ewan McGregor works on a barge in Scotland, and is having an affair with Tilda Swinton, the barge captain's wife. Emily Mortimer is in this, too. Mackenzie's narrative plays with time in a cool way. Suspense, plus lots of nudity and grim-faced sex! Worth a look... if you can find it anywhere.

For your consideration, here is Udo Kier in a bear costume.
(There's a backstory, but it's available on a need-to-know basis and honestly no one really needs to know.)

They started in the late 70s (just read this). The guy who convinced me to move from DC in 1990 let me couch-surf for a couple months in Noe Valley. Acme was his choice of Sourdough and became mine, though I tried them all.

in the Mission had *the best I ever had in the City; probably baked it in-house.

The ride has been such a fun one over the past 20 years. Seeing this recognition is so incredibly gratifying. Congrats to the team making it happen through the dotcom crash, the pandemic, and so many ups and downs over the years.
