  2. Thanks for the feedback. Interesting news about Keaton.

    Funny enough I was thinking about you last night when I was watching a rerun-episode of the TV series Matlock. Part of the DNA of Andy Griffith’s Ben Matlock is that although very wealthy and able to command $100,000 fees per case [and he can do it Brando-like up-front] Ben is very tight with money.

    So in one scene in that Matlock episode Ben went into a grocery store and kicked up an enormous fuss over the price of several items of goods and then it struck me! Griffith was a method actor and he used your store to practice making a nuisance of himself for his on-screen performances.

    Indeed had time-frames coincided the KING of Method himself might well have appeared in your store if he had known about its appeal for other thespians to practice his dramatics – and also to possibly consult Joel’s book for some pointers if a copy had been kicking about. Certainly if I had been there I would have kicked one about!

    Anyway please keep safe. I see that 3 of our [new to me at least] ladies have written to you about Audie. You may recall that you sent me yet another informative book: about Murphy and his movies and which I still use as a valuable reference source in my private film-related exercises.
