September 14, 2004

quick question

Imagine you're reading a novel and you run across a reference to an old movie called The Trouble with Angels.

Hayley Mills as Mary Clancy, June Harding as Rachel Devery, Rosalind Russell as Mother Superior, 1966. Hayley Mills is the trouble maker ("I've got a scathingly brilliant idea").

Does this mean anything to you, or would you be totally in the dark? I may not be a practicing Catholic, but I still love this movie and I'm wondering if anybody else remembers it, at all.

things come together

Sometimes all it takes is the right sentence, and everything flows. Today the scene that has been stuck in my craw dislodged itself and out came 1,500 words. Now I'm going to go play with fabric.
