______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The kind of humor I like is the thing that makes me laugh for five seconds and think for ten minutes = G. CARLIN...Stain glass, engraved glass, frosted glass –give me plain glass = JOHN FOWLES ... Music is the mathematics of the gods=PYTHAGORAS ... Nothing is more fluid than language = R. L. SWIHART
I cannot live without the oxygen of laughter = DAWN POWELL ...!!! ... But laughter cannot survive without the hydrogen of gravitas = PAUL OLIVERIO
I first saw THE SWIMMER in 1968 ... and have seen it five times since ... It is based on a John Cheever short story that could easily make my Favorite Cheever list, as could thirty other short stories/novels written by JC.
Every time I watched THE SWIMMER, there were new details/comments that drew my attention.
Though hers isn't the best acting, seeing Joan Rivers in a non-comedic role is why I look forward to watching the film again when next it is broadcast on TCM
A fictional swimmer who could make the greatest paradise

ReplyDeleteI am very surprised by his humility:
He failed to mention that Joan Rivers
signed his first paycheck
as a California resident.
Humility, Schmuhility...

because my psychoanalyst, Dr. Raft,
advised the restraint for legal reasons.
