Seems like we're going out every day now, despite the need for weekend concentration on some of the tasks at hand, alas. So today, after page 4 is composed for Psalm 48 (which turns out to be its conclusion) and some 21st-Century Music work, depart with Harriet for her new DVD player and head back to the library for more video enrichment, including --
The Fountainhead (1949, after Ayn Rand's 1943 novel),
the film (1977) of Charles Dickens's Hard Times (1854),
the adaptation of Henry James's Washington Square (1880) that is The Heiress (1949),
How Green Was My Valley (1941),
The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923, somewhat after Victor Hugo's 1831 original),
I, Claudius (Robert Graves, 1934/1976),
John Adams (2008),
Judgment at Nuremberg (1961),
Kiss of Death (1947), and
The Last Time I Saw Paris (1954) --
on a mild (68 degrees) and increasing-clouds day. Home again takes us to the final draft of the Belinda Reynolds article for Grove American, the editing of the fourth movement of New Big People Old Trouble So Sunday, and one of the last Street Songs videos --
VII. Irish Potatos.
