Ripley as O’Brien. Yes yes yes.

Goodbye Samuel French.
The Samuel French Theatre/Film Bookstore in Studio City closed its doors today. I would be sad, but I never particularly cared for the Studio City branch. It seems stupid as I type this, but I always hated how the plays were arranged by title instead of by author, like they are in the Hollywood store.

I read and loved all four of Harris’s Lecter books. I was unsatisfied with every film adaptation...

How do you say a line like “Great Minerva, take us from our realm to yours” with a straight face?
It was a challenge.
Have you ever lost your place in a play and had to ad-lib?
Ah, there’s your stupid question! I was waiting for it to come. The answer is no … A play is not an act of running lines. If it feels that way to you as an audience, then you ought to leave and go have...
