In which a group of graying eternal amateurs discuss their passions, interests and obsessions, among them: movies, art, politics, evolutionary biology, taxes, writing, computers, these kids these days, and lousy educations.

Waking Dream of Monsters Redux

Michael --

The 1930s "Wolf Man"? No, I haven't seen it. I haven't seen the Bela Lugosi "Dracula" either, or "The Bride of Frankenstein." I'm sort of hopeless in the horror department.

I understand that the director of "Freaks" was a talented guy. (Apparently my 50s are going to be marked by a complete failure of my memory for names. Well, at least that way I'll be constantly meeting new people.) Do you agree? I believe he was, along with Erich von Stroheim, an assistant director on "Intolerance."

Cheers,

Friedrich
