Nice.
But I have some questions.
Who was "Blondly Muscled"?
What was the "Asian Takeaway"?
Bear in mind I did once attend a viewing of TRHPS at the UC Theater in Berkeley back in the 70's... but I can't say I could follow the plot (such as it is) at all. There was too much distraction from the front 20 rows. FYI, that theater was one of the first to stage the shadow casting, until the owners got tired of it and it moved to SF.
Oh, and in A River Runs Through It, Paul calls his expert fly fishing technique "Shadow Casting". I don't remember him doing that in drag, tho.
All I remember from the movie was people shouting "Toast!" and tossing slices of toast in the air.

It's Wednesday.
My day to forage for provisions.
I shall, however, return.

Asian takeaway in England is Curry. Blondly muscled is a reference to his bleached blonde Creation (Peter Hinwood). |

Oh, OK. It comes up as just Chinese here. I guess we Americans don't regard India as Asian, although I've been assured by Indian friends that it is. It might also be a West Coast thing.
As for Mr. Hinwood, barely remember him from what little I've seen of the film. I have since learned, however, that he portrayed the Greek god Hermes in a movie about my adventures. Small world.

OK, I had a slight mishap... got the provision chore done OK, but when I got back, my computer appeared to have got infected by a virus. Luckily I have a product that can clean such crap up and it's back on now.
I think I have a film selected, just need some more time to formulate clues obscure enough to be a challenge but not too frustrating for the dwindling group. So just don't dwindle, M'Kay?
Back in a bit.

OK. Clue #1: The studio cast two relatively unknown actors in leading roles. Napoleon Dynamite Napoleon: I don't even have any good skills. Pedro: What do you mean? Napoleon: You know, like nunchuck skills, bow hunting skills, computer hacking skills. Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills. |

it's mandatory watching for anyone who has a 15 year old son. I don't think normal people would like it. It cost $400,000 to make and grossed about 200 million dollars. I have a Pedro for President shirt. |

The name is vaguely familiar, but I don't think I've ever seen it. Not even in my younger days.
