Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I can only wonder what I'll pick next.

I started the day with crappy romcom, so everything else is kinda a pick me up.

That's the ticket!

I'm eyeing my Christmas gift of The Fall.

Beautiful cinematography and suicidal tendencies!

Because books.

The Uninvited is just starting on TCM -- the 1940s ghost story, not the new one.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I saw Hitchcock's last two movies today: Frenzy and Family Plot. The former was a solid and tense thriller, but I felt like something was missing, perhaps because it was the sort of movie Hitchcock had made many times before (wrongly accused man has to clear his name), just more lurid and disturbing (the villain is a serial killer/rapist, and there is a rape scene). The latter, though, was great fun and very entertaining. Barbara Harris is a hoot.

What's really fun about Family Plot is that it's filmed almost entirely in San Francisco, but they're pretending it's not.

I noticed that! When the kidnappers were pulling into their house on a hill, it looked so much like San Francisco, but I hadn't heard any references to where the movie was supposed to be taking place.
