"The Queen is preparin' to ride down London Way....... Where will we all be
.... on Coronation Day?
That from The Threepenny Opera. And today is election day. Where will we
all be on Ramen Shop day? With hope in our hearts, we hope. I look forward to
the film.
NB. I may not get to the meeting on Thursday. If weather permits, N and I
desperately need a day away. Our last shot at Acadia.
May the better angels prevail! A

Hi, All--
Well, there! Yes, in Ramen Shop there is a passion for soup, which helps heal
wounds that are very deep.

Hi all,
I'll vote for the Ramen film simply based upon Alice and Laurie's
responses. I have been screening several trailers and see endless
been-there-seen-that glimpses. (Could be way wrong, of course) But I don't come
across much joy, depth, nor passion. A good amount of gloom and crying, yes.
Disclaimer. I just bought the three disc Criterion set of ANDREI RUBLEV. At 183
minutes we could screen it over two weeks. It was great at MIFF last summer.
And so many never got to see it.
Jess funnin.
I remain one who believes absolutely that the big screen is not merely
a bigger image - it is a distinctly different experience. And that's why my
heart yearns so often to see once again some great piece in that way. You all
notice perhaps that I am always rooting for the "Classic" selection - the old
guy. The great film.
Rabbit Proof Fence. The Thin Red Line. Since Otar Left. Winged
Migration. That kind of stuff on the big screen. And I do look forward to the
Ramen film - a passion for soup, is it?
