At about the 1:30 mark, my friend Dan is interviewed skipping work to see the Sith. I probably won't catch it until the 1st. Shani and Dave have already opined that it's devoid of goodness, a bad sign; I had hopes for this one, though it does appear Lucas has written himself into a corner.

There are reports that my favorite playwright, Tom Stoppard, fine-tuned the dialogue for Episode III.

Stoppard also worked on two of my favorite movies, Brazil and Shakespeare in Love.

Jim Lindgren reviews Travesties, perhaps my favorite play, at the Court Theater; I saw the same play in the same theater twice in 1995. Joyce's broad Irish accent in the play is a reflection on the unreliable narrator.
