is bringing over the dvd this week for us to watch. it was playing at my ultra-local theater a while back. this ultra-local theater is a one-screen, vintage 1928 theater that originally showed silents, the new talkies, and vaudeville acts. it's also situated in a charming, older town (a bit department 56 christmas in the city), so its 1928 credentials are in harmony with the rest of the community. bonus -- it's just down the block, and a two-minute walk from my house. : ) it still shows films, but it also still shows live acts (i saw aimee mann there a few years ago; she was +great+). you can also rent it, and people in the town use it for things like dance recitals at the local children's dance schools. i see i've gone off on a tangent (not unusual), so i will close by saying i'm looking forward to seeing "much ado about nothing." : ) .
aka. fili orc-enshield +++++++++++++++++++ the scene, as i understand it, is exceptionally well-written. fili (in sort of a callback to the scene with the eagles), calls out "thorRIIIIIIN!!!" just as he sees the pale orc veer in for the kill. he picks up the severed arm of an orc which is lying on the ground, swings it up in desperation, effectively blocking the pale orc's blow. and thus, forever after, fili is known as "fili orc-enshield." this earns him deep respect from his hard-to-please uncle. as well as a hug. kili wipes his boots on the pale orc's glory box. -- maciliel telpemairo
