Been watching Breakfast at Tiffany's. I had no idea... the wondrous horror of Mickey Rooney - not five minutes in - with his teeth from The Thing or from a figure at the base of a crucifixion. Does it sink the film completely, does anyone think, or is it an artistic choice, boldly disfiguring what would otherwise be too much like perfection? They should remake it maybe. Instead of the Jap, they could make him a terrorist trying to solder the wires between prayer sessions. Talking of commercial cinema, I notice that first prize in the ultimatebond competition available to purchasers of the James Bond Ultimate Edition is Win An Aston Martin!* So what would you do on the 364th day? Presumably they've thought of that and you won't be able to drive the thing without a minder or an electronic tag and you'll have to return it each night to dedicated secure premises miles from your home. And then there's the cost of insurance, and doubtless a depreciation charge at the time of return.
Roger Moore was 79 yesterday. Congratulations Sir Roger.
* for a year
