Now on TWC's Free Movies on Demand. Olivier said : "I am
Archie Rice. I am not Hamlet," and it shows. Alan Bates and
Albert Finney in minor roles. I have the play in my personal
library and never read it, now I will.



Read about this in Newsday. Harvest Moon coming up
in early October, from Space.com:

Oct. 4, 2:10 a.m. EDT -- Full Harvest Moon. Traditionally, this designation goes to the full moon that occurs closest to the Autumnal (fall) Equinox. The Harvest Moon usually comes in September, but sometimes it will fall in early October as is the case in 2009; the next time won't come until 2017. At the peak of the harvest, farmers can work into the night by the light of this moon. Usually the full moon rises an average of 50 minutes later each night, but for the few nights around the Harvest Moon, the moon seems to rise at nearly the same time each night: just 25 to 30 minutes later across the U.S., and only 10 to 20 minutes later for much of Canada and Europe. Corn, pumpkins, squash, beans, and wild rice -- the chief Indian staples -- are now ready for gathering.



Neil Young, Harvest Moon behind him on stage.



Also saw this on the Sundance Channel. Wild documentary.
