Dead Man

Aug 28, 2004 flicks

The first movie I’ve caught of the Johnny Depp series the local AFI theatre is presenting, Depp here plays William Blake. No, not that William Blake, though a reluctantly helpful native american he meets seems to think so. Because of a chance encounter involving a gun, a price is put on his head. Men, both lawful and lawless are sent to track him down, and his indian guide helps prepare him for his final journey. Shot in black-n-white, and with a music score by Neil Young that I really ended up liking, even though there wasn’t much to it. A thoughtful film— highly recommended.

Special thanks to the waitress at the Austin Grill last night who left me her pen to sign the check with— I think I’ve got a new favourite pen.

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is being continued on the BBC radio, starting in September, for the “Tertiary Phase” and in May of next year for the “Quadrenary Phase.” Most of the old radio cast is back, and there’s both a video and audio preview on the BBC’s web page.

I’m curious… if my wireless network is bridged to my “wired” ethernet computers through my wireless router, why can’t my wire-bound Macs play to the AirPort Express in the living room as well? Sure, I can “share” my iTunes music to another Mac that does have an AirPort card in it, and play from there— but doesn’t that seem a little… inefficient?
