Two weeks ago, Trump campaigned in North Carolina. Today Republicans pulled all their campaign funding from the Senate race. Let's hope this trend continues everywhere Trump goes!

Folks might recall we were due to host this on September 2, but both Bluesky and Internet Archive were having issues. So I’m going on record here and now as saying that come rain or come shine, come hell or high water, come glitching, come buffering – even if CT and I have to host this damn movie on Zoom using sock puppets – we will be watching THE LOST WEEKEND on October 7, and as God as my witness, we will never be thirsty again.

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER caught a career break when LUCILLE BALL gave him a part in ‘Happy Anniversary And Goodbye’ (1974). This led to Bob Rafelson offering him the part that got his Movie career going in ‘Stay Hungry’ (1976) - which earnt him a Golden Globe Award and put him on the Hollywood map.

Eddie Muller in Dashiell Hammett's restored apartment in San Francisco. #FilmNoir #NoirAlley 📷 ~ Matthew Ryan Williams for The New York Times, 2014.

This photo is from an article by Dan Saltzstein "San Francisco Noir" in the New York Times, June 27th, 2014...

The night before, I found myself back at 891 Post Street, Hammett’s home. I was led into the building and up a creaky antique elevator by Eddie Muller, a San Francisco native, author and self-proclaimed “noirchaeologist.” We headed to the fourth floor and entered apartment 401; I was immediately struck by a sensation of having traveled through time.

The apartment has been restored to be a simulacrum of what it might have looked like in the ’20s, outfitted with all things vintage: a gramophone, a frosted-glass door and a desk topped with a typewriter and lamp — and yet another replica falcon.

As we sat down to chat over a bottle of bourbon, Mr. Muller, a pleasantly gregarious man clad in a checkered beige suit, blue tie and pocket square, began to explain the story of the apartment’s revival. (The apartment is not open to the public; I got lucky in that Mr. Muller is one of only a couple of people with access. “It is more like a shrine than a museum,” he told me, with evident pride.)

Hammett had sent letters from 891 Post Street, where he wrote three of his five novels, but the apartment’s exact location had to be teased out of clues, ones embedded in “The Maltese Falcon,” by the apartment’s one-time resident, Bill Arney, who had taken Mr. Herron’s tour years before. Spade, too, lived on Post Street, and a few further details — it’s a fourth-floor apartment in proximity to the elevator; there’s an unusual bend in the hallway — left only one suspect: apartment 401.

After Mr. Arney gave up the apartment, Mr. Muller contacted a friend, Robert Mailer Anderson, an acclaimed writer and philanthropist, who had the resources to make the restoration happen. The idea, Mr. Muller said, was “so that it looks like Hammett just went out for a pack of cigarettes.”
