Altman Dies
I just found out that Robert Altmann died. That sucks bricks in a major way! Somehow the news reached me with a delay, as I don’t have a tv anymore and I hadn’t read the New York Times, which I receive via email, for several days.
Well, here’s to a big inspiration! To a man who’s work often tickled me. Here’s to Short Cuts, California Split, Gosford Park and Nashville… Here’s to Lily Tomlin, Elliott Gould and huge casts… Here’s to never-ending shots, to brilliant imrovisations and to films that seem to have no script, but are amazingly plotted. Thanks, Mr. Altmann.
