“...matinee”

It's the second day...so far so good. It's warmish a touch humid and overcast in the Emerald City. As in Narnia it's now ‘Always winter and never Christmas’. Speaking of which been watching old DVD musicals. Yesterday "Oklahoma" today "South Pacific". I first saw South Pacific in movies. 

Every Saturday my Ma would give me a quarter for the kiddy matinee. I never had any idea what would be playing...I just went. This btw is how I saw Hitchcock’s ‘Psycho’ when I was 9, but that’s another story. With ‘South Pacific’ a new world opened up for me. "I'm in love with a marvelous guy". As with the ‘Red Shoes’ I liked what I saw. The thing had moments.
