JASON ISAACS -- THE LOST GIRLS

The OA is very frustrating--I keep checking, and so far it's available only to stream. You can sometimes find DVDs on eBay, but they were produced for distribution to voting members of whatever group does the Emmy awards, not for commercial sale. That matters only because a) the DVDs for season one...

I don't see a problem with carrots in the pasta sause or sweet corn in the tuna sandwich. It fits right in, if you ask me...

Tain't right! Tain't natural!

No problem!!!!
Thank you, and thank you for reviving opportunities to discuss so many JI projects, new and familiar!

Anniemouse, may I ask you please to replace the photos with a link to their original site? I know that in this age of Instagram and Pinterest, it's natural to take photos for granted and I know none of these is new, but we try to keep pictures off (unless we've taken them ourselves). This both reduc...

The carrots.
This is so reminiscent of my husband's English recipe for lasagna. What the hell is that ingredient, and what's it doing there?? Like all the tuna-salad sandwiches in the UK--"sweet corn" is mandatory. Fucking corn in your tuna sandwich.

He was a camp counsellor at least one summer at a "Jewish camp" in Milford, Pennsylvania. I don't know how he would have found out about it?

Cheeky!

One thing I didn't hear discussion of (I ducked out a few minutes before the end) was WHY the affront to the gods (the murder of Oedipus's father, Laius) was such a big stinking deal, but it didn't seem to bother anyone that his wife Jocasta chucked out her own baby on the strength of a prophecy tha...

I got several reminders as well, and boy was I ever grateful--I struggled like anything to figure out what time it happened!! Of course I wished to pop in and ask a question, but none of my responses were as thought-provoking and insightful as the ones from the panel and guests, so just as well I di...

When "Good" first appeared, the concepts it considered (how does a 'decent' person morph into an enabler of Nazism?) seemed way more distant and theoretical--to me, anyway. I thought the movie (adapted from a play of the same name) did an excellent job of illustrating how weakness allowed someone wh...

We had a dog when I was a kid, and I think it never occurred to lots of people that MANY things are bad for them (e.g., onions, even cooked ones in stuff like stew). I think the main risk from mince pie would be the raisins--grapes can cause kidney failure in dogs. Weird to think that something so s...

Glad it works for you--and as one of the other mods said, we appreciate your enthusiasm and articulate observations!

Anniemouse, I realize that a lot of my posts to you read as "Oh I did this and I went there and Jason Isaacs and I are best friends" and I'm sorry for sounding like that! Some of these folk got a lot of history under our belts, and your reviewing older projects has prompted some reminiscing that I'm...

We made an effort, Marie!

When we mentioned that connection to JI, he evinced complete ignorance (well why would you know every producer associated with your movie), and then said, well, if it's any comfort, everyone involved with that end had lost their shirts.
So.
