  1. Wha? I don't quite get it...Sounds like you're saying both that Canadians get Ben's sense of humour, but then, not, only "normal viewers" get it. I don't mind the implication that Canadians aren't "normal", I just can't figure out if you're saying it's only Canadians, or only normal people, or both, who get Ben's jokes.

    As I mentioned to Dargo, it was a joke about the fact that Canadians spell the word humoUr with an extra U, so they get Ben's sense of "humour". Americans, spelling it "humor", get Ben's sense of "humor".

     

    Of course, the Quebeckers don't get it at all since Ben's intros, not being in French, violate Bill 101. ;)

  2. Doesn't Margo have the duplex in New York and a place out in Connecticut? The party where Margo says "Fasten your seatbelts" from the stairs is at her apartment, right? Karen and Lloyd have a rather more modest apartment, if memory serves.

  3. Speaking of duplex apartments, Joel McCrea and Claudette Colbert have one in The Palm Beach Story while Margot Channing's apartment in All About Eve is also a duplex.

     

    And then there's the one Doris Day and Rex Harrison have in Midnight Lace.

     

    I've always thought the Jeffersons' deee-luxe apartment in the sky didn't seem very deee-luxe to me.

  4. Through a Glass, Darkly (1961).

     

    Four family members, one of whom just got out of a mental hospital after being treated for schizophrenia, meet up on the island of Fårö, just off the bigger island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. They talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk and talk. Then the woman with schizophrenia has another psychotic break.

     

    5/10 Nice cinematography, but boy is this talky and not much happens. Not nearly as bad as Cries and Whispers, however.
