To Whom it May Concern
I was driving when your text message came in. The car interrupted the CD player to read it to me.
To Whom it May Concern
April 3. You know who you are! 😉
It’s Full of Stars!
What’s up next for Boss Radio 66 DJ Tom Hanks? Asteroid City, also with Steve Carell and another personal fav, Hope Davis. Check the trailer for the complete list of actors. I expect this will be my next reason to enter a movie theater.
The Hometown Brew
Getting in the mood for tonight’s Big Planet Noise, where I call myself Beantown Doug.
On Stage and On Film
Barter Theatre in Virginia was featured on last night’s PBS NewsHour.
As explained in the video, Barter Theatre includes actors from New York. My mother was one of them, after completing the program at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts.
In addition to the plays produced at home base, Barter’s actors traveled, performing plays throughout the region. The troupe of actors my mother was with included Ernest Borgnine, who she called Ernie. Borgnine did double duty as an actor and as the bus driver. Ernie enjoyed it so much, driving his own buses became a lifelong avocation.
CBS Sunday Morning covered the very important work of film restoration and preservation. The amazing results seen today wouldn’t be possible without digital technology.
