>finance wrote on another thread: Question for you guys. There is a great song I hear on Sirius "First Wave". I don't know the title or the artist. Presumably it is considered '80s new wave. It has a recurring refrain, "Look away, look away, look away, look away, look away"......., and another one, "Walk away, walk away, walk away, walk away, walk away"......... What song and artist is this? I don't know if you could have picked worst words for a search; Just keying in those words yielded 50K possible results. Uniqueness counts in this instance. Next time you hear it, you may want to glance at the player... Do you have a smart phone? Download Sound Hound.

No, this is Xanadu: http://www.hearstcastle.org/ Yeah, and the fireplace is big enough to walk into. .

Cityscapes are nice and all, but Jake's posts are inspiring, and I thought I would introduce a blend of preservation and Hollywood. *Harold Lloyd's GreenAcres Estate:* Hollywood Luxury, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. *The entry:* *the drawing room:* I found a website of preservation architects that is keeping me hopeful of living in a craftsmen someday myself- http://www.ksmarchitecture.com/portfolio/index.html

Happy birthday, Audrey Hepburn.

Yeah, I saw the photo and immediately thought Uptown.. Finance, do you work downtown in high-rise?

Good one. Obsession is one of my personal favorites, and the other city featured in it is New Orleans in the winter and it is a very non-typical look at that fine city. -
Thank you for mentioning Theresa and her work. Don't just dream; do! I stick to my software and watch the film in my imagination, Screenwriters for motion picture can live anywhere.. Only TV writers really need to be where the studios are anymore. We don't all want to be an auteur. Though I am hard at work on putting together a Pitch Book now for one screenplay and working on my portfolio with the others. It was so funny today; I chased a TV news truck down to get a photo of it. If my plans work in favor and my next dream is manifested I will share the adventures I've had following my muse.

Hollywood is dead. All Hollywood does today is make garbage out of garbage. > >This is my dream. An idea anyway. Fascinated by the idea of a 35 mm camera; why choose that when newer technology rules the medium? Will Film Museums be your showcases then? Most theaters will be converting to digital.

Ha! wonderful. It is still there:

I know there are people who dream of doing something someday, but until you declare it, it will remain a wish, and not a plan. My Hollywood Bucket List 1. --write a screenplay-- (done it) 2. Tour the locations of SUMMERTIME and FUNNY FACE And get photos of me there

ah, friend, looks like the city father's saw the main street and just saw "the noise"... The transition looks painful indeed. So sorry. I am looking for a building in Bergen, Norway that was destroyed in WW2 and they rebuilt it -- exactly the way it was! Edited by: casablancalover on May 3, 2012 11:24 AM

The Palm Beach Story. Not Sturges' best, but. . .
casablancalover replied to slaytonf's topic in General Discussions
That's what I love about it... It's a Road picture. Sturges introduces and then leaves characters behind. I love the novel way The Ale and Quail Club is handled through the Conductor. Those guys will be fine. They can go hunting for breakfast, though the way they partied it will be lunch.. LOL -
Thanks for sharing, darkblue. I heard this today on my iPod in shuffle, and the way I was feeling it was very cathartic: [billy Joel|http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H23tUK3z17U]

How inspiring. The sport of Kings must find a song Garfunkel: Not a somgwriter, per se, but was arranger adding Canticle for this: I sure misswonderly won't mind . .

Is there some Hollywood dreams you still wish to fulfill? Places to see? People to meet? Films to see on the big screen? Things to do? What are some things on your list?

I have a tour planned of Wright's homes in Oak Park on my personal bucket list. I have seen both Taliesin in Spring Green WI and Taliesin West outside Scottsdale AZ. http://www.taliesinpreservation.org/ http://www.franklloydwright.org/web/Tours.html Secret of a bucket list? Keep it open-ended...

I must admit I like the open floor plans of great rooms and kitchens, and the Craftsman too, with a larger kitchen. Also, bigger closets make organizing a snap. I hope you can reconstruct your Lustron someday, TikiSoo. It has a place in architectual history to me. I find it fascinating. There are several in Mpls.- Still functioning as homes. So, the remodeled California craftsman would be a perfect house for me. No more than 2000 sq feet livable.. All over the Mid-coastal and southern Cal. 3 bed/2 bath with the Arts & Crafts oak woodwork and tiled fireplace and large porch. You can keep your mansions. Better suited as museums to me now. It is a pity Green Acres wasn't allowed to remain the model of Early Hollywood's Royal Castle...

h4. Little known pop music tropes - If a girl is heartbroken over losing a guy to another girl, the guy will dump the new girlfriend before the end of song. - Love is almost always true when your eyes meet across a crowded room. - If your girlfriend dies, your song about her death will be a SMASH. Especially if she comes back to either bless you as an angel or haunt you. - If rock guitar is really loud and wild, the lyrics work best as nonsensical. BTW- I had heard STOP was used in telegrams for periods weren't reliable in Morse Code. The dot could be misconstrued as part of another letter in the word. Just read Fred's explanation.
