I think you did quite well talking to Goldman, considering he's someone you admire greatly. And to have him respond favorably to you, how great is that? As far Lupica, I'm kind of hoping you'll come around.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4050144275493834587.post-80193779663334501632012-02-13T13:56:53.509-05:002012-02-13T13:56:53.509-05:00Thanks, George, for another wonderful view of a wr...Thanks, George, for another wonderful view of a writer on writers. Re Goldman: This blog sent me to Wiki. Two big favorites jumped up. "Soldier in the Rain," which although not read by me, I've always regarded as the standout movie of "the Great One," Jackie Gleason. The other is "No Way to Treat a Lady." The book was a delicious, perverse, and humor-filled look at an insane actor who just happens to be a serial killer. The movie, while toned down, was a thoroughly enjoyable showcase of Rod Steiger's range.<br /><br />The enumeration in this comment of certain books/movies shall not be construed to deny or disparage others, including "Marathon Man" and "All the President's Men," to which you paid tribute.Barry Reitmanhttp://www.memoryshock.comnoreply@blogger.com
