What an amazing film. Carol and I saw The Pianist, a Roman Polanski film, on Saturday. No wonder it’s been nominated for a Best Movie Oscar. I was blown away and moved to tears a number of times.
A brilliant pianist, a Polish Jew, witnesses the restrictions Nazis place on Jews in the Polish capital, from restricted access to the building of the Warsaw ghetto. As his family is rounded up to be shipped off to the Nazi labor camps, he escapes deportation and eludes capture by living in the ruins of Warsaw.
The Pianist himself, played by Adrien Brody has been nominated (and rightly so) for Best Actor. This is one to watch.
Paulie, who’s 40 today, sent me this picture. Now your hair’s all going to fall out ….oh wait. Too late. 🙂
Happy 40!
Band leader seeks protection in exchange for testimony.
All this says to me is G U I L T Y! We heard a former bandmate on the Tom Leykis show the other day and he was saying that this turdball, regardless of club policies or permission, sets up Pyro displays and has the ventilation turned off as his throat dries out.
Give me a break. If he’s given immunity so he has a forum to lie and deflect responsibility there will be no justice in this case.
Oh yeah, all this … “alleged”… Argh!
CNN.com – NASA releases shuttle re-entry video – Feb. 28, 2003 I watched the whole thing. It was interesting to see and hear what goes on in the cockpit of a shuttle during re-entry.
