EP Podcast Schedule November/December

Leslie CaronI love Leslie Caron — there, I've said it. If I could find a modern Leslie Caron, fifteen years younger than me, smarter than me, and rich, I'd run away with her to Tahiti... Why don't they make them like that anymore?? Well, OK, here's the schedule for the next several weeks. And one other thing: Just as I did last year I'm going to take two weeks off, this year for the weeks of Christmas and New Year's. I need to recharge my batteries, also catch up on my sleep.

This Friday my guest is Michael Sims, talking about the great poet Don Marquis and other things. Friday, December 4th, my guest will be James McCommons, talking about his recent book, Waiting on a Train. The Friday following, the 11th, we have Orrin Pilkey talking about his just published book, with co-author Rob Young, The Rising Sea. And the week before Christmas, Friday the 18th, my guest will be Budd Hopkins, talking about his recently published memoir, Art, Life, and UFOs. If I can I'll throw in one more, but no guarantees.

George,

What are your favorite three Leslie Caron movies?

Cheers from Atlanta,

Ken

[In no particular order that would be Father Goose, Fanny, and Gigi. An American in Paris getting honorable mention. I think, btw, that Fanny would have been among the all-time great movies if not for a lousy performance — horrible casting — by Horst Buchholz. g.]


Having recently seen Father Goose, it is easy to imagine why one might fantasize about running away with an approximately age-appropriate Leslie Caron-esque woman — less easy to imagine what might be in it for her.

Oh well.

[Yeah. Maybe happiness?! ☺ g.]
