THE POWER OF TREES Invisible Demons

This Earthen Door


OK Timothée Chalamet: tell me this is dead and uninteresting?! Lots all singers can learn too from this. One helluva great choreographer is Juliano Nunes! Like: we need a life coach choreographer! Yada yada yada- give up this, less of that u.s.w.! German meow meow growl…We need: on relevé go here not there. A life choreographer. Double tour en l'air. You can’t hot 5th but try landing here. THAT’s what us ‘cats’ need! Pas de chat now pas de chien. So not terrible! Woof! Smell it! Own it! Purr it!

So, why Juliano Nunes? Of course you’re being used Meow Chal:)! But for good cause…:) Immediately drawn to bodies their slow discrete magnetic centrifugal force. Juliano spoke of cosmic something in an interview after we’d all already felt it. Palpable. How does he do that!? Ellen Burstyn reading poetry the other day on TV. I remember her at The Actors Studio once many moons as moderator to actors and their scenes. She asked: what did you see? Some members said they felt..she abruptly interrupted: NO! What did you see? She interrupted again! Dance is an art form even more unforgiving than acting. If you don’t see it, hear it, you sure ain’t feelin’ it!

Is President Trump a cat?! Seeming certainly more lives than…Not saying all cats thus happy, though some totally wanna ‘nuke’ those dogs. “It’s a crazy world.” The Correspondent’s Dinner Saturday ’incursion’. How could someone so well-educated and intelligent totally screw up their mission? Rather, not even have a plan! If there was a ’Sondheim’ Assassins Got Talent that guy wouldn’t get further than the audition. And he didn’t! Mangione. We see the why but what of wherefor? Even if you are a ‘mastermind’ oft’ are confounding ‘devil in the details’. The Jackal could lose at any given moment. Almost does. Kelly Reichardt’s The Mastermind more than appears; similar to her Nightmoves

Talkin’ movies now not ideas but great Brit thriller from the 70’s The Internecine Project


Everybody has the right to be happy..

Political satire. Speaks for itself, doesn’t? We like Jimmy Kimmel. Maybe not as much as Seth and Stephen and other Jimmy and Late night Furr-Ball. But: why roast Melania? She’s doing such a great job as First Lady. What doth demand of her: clinging to the prow of a ship in the Straits of Hormuz and singing “my heart will go on..”!! Give the gal a break! Utterly committed to her role. Never ‘coasting’. And her documentary wasn’t that THAT bad at all! If you’re a bit desperate one evening for something keep awake glide gently into that good night with no scary dreams. And so smart was Melania to use a great cinematographer and director.  One must credit where due! 

Kinda unfortunate that the ABAA New York International Antiquarian Book Fair (NYIABF) has antiquarian in the title, connotations of ancient times and fustiness. The latter, of course, something every book dealer dreads in actuality! The Vibrant Paper and Things Fair probably wouldn’t go down so well with some members. But that’s exactly what it is! Attend and have fun! Use the search engine to the right or be lazy and just click on a few links here;)

So, falling asleep tonight ‘kittens’? There’s the always ‘devil in the delightful details’ HauteLeMode. Here Devil Wears Prada 2 press tour. Mama can;t afford that..listen to Mama…OK, banana leaves work….Or for the sappy ney smart poetic pups, Patterson when the dog devours your poetry. Not sure what happens when you mix both before bedtime. Sure beats holistic Valerian or so so more terrible options.
