Hey, curmudgeon, see the movie, and you'll feel better about all three. I've never brought the subject of Winedale up with Owen. Didn't think of it. Will now do so the next time I see him and see what he says. If he throws something at me, I promise to throw something bigger back at him. m

Famously (or infamously in our circles), Owen Wilson was a Winedale student very briefly in the summer of 1989. (Madge and I were both there that summer.) He opted to leave rather than learn his lines -- we handled it.
It's hard not to feel a bit ambivalent about him even now (in case you were wondering how long I hold a grudge), but he has shown some great charm in some of his movies. (Of course, people feel ambivalent about Woody Allen too. And even about Paris!)

Meant to write on Sunday after seeing the picture Saturday night—9:30 screening, sold out, as were the two preceding screenings. Loved the movie—full of charm and smitten with Paris. Most fun out at the movies in a long while. Congratulations, Michael. xxxm
