In danger of getting overlooked, what with airing at just after midnight this coming Sunday, an absolutely brilliant Omnibus film from 1988 about Caryl Churchill. I believe the only time anyone's ever attempted to film Fen and those sequences are unforgettable. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

BBC Four - Omnibus, Caryl Churchill
Portrait of Caryl Churchill, one of Britain's most prolific and versatile playwrights.

I love her books so much. This is one of the best.

Jeffrey Lewis’ ‘Spin it or Bin it’ ongoing series trawling through his (and sometimes others’) vinyl is a daily joy, feels like it’s becoming one of THE classic bits of music curation a la Nurse With Wound list/Kurt’s favourite 50 albums but for psych/acid folk freaks. Look it up on fb/insta/YT.

I really hope the publication of biographies of Anita Brookner and Barbara Cartland at more of less the same time creates a literary Barbenheimer effect.

The Joker asks "You know how I got these scars?" referring to huge red gash scars stretching up to his cheeks from his mouth. The next panel shows someone holding up a string of ice pops in their plastic packaging.

Good morning - I hope you slept like a midge-stuffed pipistrelle - I'm starting with J. A. Grimshaw's ‘In the Golden Olden Times’, oil on canvas, 1870. This also graces the September page of the JOHN ATKINSON GRIMSHAW CALENDAR for 2027. www.rathergoodart.co.uk/product/john... #johnatkinsongrimshaw
‘In the Golden Olden Times’, oil on canvas, 1870. A view down a leaf strew road lined with nearly bare trees, their leaves lying below. On the right is a large decorative building, on the left the figure of an adult and child - all is suffused by a warm amber light.

It’s one of my faves. Even the less-liked seasons were great, I thought. Characters and relationships driving the story, not just plot.

Just finished the last couple of episodes of The Bear. What a great show, fully invested in those characters. A smart ending.

🚂 “Take a break, Driver 8/Driver 8 take a break…” Released as a single on September 3, 1985, “Driver 8” was according to Peter, “probably the quintessential R.E.M. song of that period. The chord changes, melodies, and harmonies are very representative of what we were doing.”
