P.S. ( The Pre-Script) : Nothing eventful has taken place in the last 2 weeks to voice an opinion over and hence a garbled mess of a train of thought follows. Proceed at your own risk and do not forget to recommend the following post to your enemies.
Dial M for Murder is an excellent movie. Of the 10 movies directed by Hitchcock that I've seen thus far, I think it's his best. But since IMDB credits him with 66 movies that he's directed, I do humbly acknowledge that the excitement could very well be premature.
I bought "Something Under the Bed is Drooling" today. This leaves me with only 2 more C&H books to complete.
While on comics, I think it's pertinent to mention that as a tribute to Georges Remi's birth centenary, I'm also on track to finish off the remaining 5 Tintin comics that I haven't read. My favorite thus far have been the Secret of the Unicorn and Red Rackham's Treasure.
I got hooked really bad to Woody Allen movies last month and the craze hasn't subsided yet. I've run through every Music World, Planet M and Crossword store in Delhi to get some of his movies but to no avail. If you know any place that you could direct me to, please do leave a comment. ( I've ransacked Palika and depleted Seventymm's collection too...)
Me and Bro are huge Sanju Baba fans so when the world said Shootout at Lokhandwala was mediocre while I loved it for Sanju Baba's daredevil fling of the bulletproof jacket, I was a little worried if Bro would think it was over the top too but a short conversation with him alleviated all those fears. ( And now I cant wait for Alibaug...)
Paul Collingwood is easily the guy who's pulled out the best catches of our generation. Youtube can smash any of your disagreements to the above. Your best defence could be Adam Bacher but I said "catches" not " a single catch".
I love the Zen Estilo jingle. I think it really has as much potential as the Hutch song or the Airtel tune. It's just the sort of thing that people would talk about and pass the ringtones around of and I get the feeling that Maruti is clearly underselling it.
If I get to make one movie in my lifetime, I'll flip a coin to decide whether it should be a murder mystery or a story on relationships. And then , the winner of this round would compete against a gangster theme on another flip of the same coin.
My favorite TV programme thus far has been this series called "Exploring the Unknown" that used to come on AXN. Nobody I've spoken this about to, has ever seen this programme. If you know what I'm talking about and you're a woman aged between 24- 32 , you are my soulmate and I'm supposed to be dating you. I know you're itching to call me. My mobile number begins with 9 and just to see if you're of my calibre I want you to find out the remaining 9 digits!
This is an end to your torture. Thanks for being nice. You've inched my blog closer to 7000 hits.
P.S. : Hoping underdog Cavs get past the Spurs...

Pretty tough for your soulmate to find you then !
Mine would be a story on relationship.
Paul Collingwood - you sure ? Not even Jonathan ?
Sanju baba rocks in SAL. I did not like the movie much - but he was the only reason why I did not loathe it.
Not watched "Dial M" but could he have directed anything better than "Birds" or "Vertigo" or "Rope" ? Am not so sure.
Send me the Woody Allen list - I might be able to help.
Yet to see Birds. Vertigo was brilliant too. Rope just made the cut but not quite his best.Dial M is riveting. There's no other word!
I didn't like SAL too much either but it's Indian masala at it's best! :-D
Have sent you the Best Catches link and the WA list! :-)
Remind me to give you the complete C&H comics on soft copy.
Nothing to beat having all the 8 albums to complete the set... but when you are feeling down at work, it can help lift your mood.
And make a murder mystery around soured relationships between gangsters!
