Dolls.

Don't if anyone else likes his films. I was thinking of going into to see it late this week, or early next?

There was an article on Yamamoto's costumes for this in yesterday's Independent - it looks wonderful. I think I might have to give it a miss this weekend as Saturday's Barbebunfight has rather taken it out of my finances, but I'd love to hear what it's like.

Likewise. I'd love to see it (I'm fast becoming a big fan), but it's a bit much to travel seventy five miles to see it in the capital. Let me know what it's like.

Cool and the gang.
It's showing in the Odeon in Covent Garden. Which I haven't been to before, but which probably has good audio, which'd be good for a kitano film.

Going to aim for next Mon/Tues night.

Tuesday would be alright for Beat-based fun. This is supposed to be one his gentler ones, so that'll be nice.

Yes. Sounds lovely. Tuesday could be good. But does this mean I meet other Lithers in the flesh? Scarey.

Scary indeed. I'll have to wear my best face.

I can never decide if I prefer his extremely violent stories, or the gentler ones. I think I like Kikijiro or Sonatine where he plays the two off one anoteher.

I think it's showing at about 8:30. I don't think we'd need to pick up tickets in advance? Where's good in the area for a quiet drink/coffee/bite to eat/all of the above?

I think it'll be alright to buy tickets on the door. As for a quick drink/bite to eat/satanic ritual, Covent Garden is full of places.

Eh.. I don't hang around the area that much. So.. err. what about the All Bar One on the corner of Charing Cross and Shaftsbury Ave.

It's a bit crap, I know. But it's easy to find, and they do nice olives. At about 7:30/8:00 on Tuesday.

Unless someone else knows somewhere?

All bar one? have you no soul man?

I guess I have an instant aversion to all bar ones/pitcher and piano's and other bars of their ilk. There is the Marquis of Granby (the one on shaftsbury ave.) opposite the all bar one - there is even the angel just of the end of denmark st.

there are always alternatives

It's one of ugliest most souless bars I've ever seen. The departure lounge bar in Stansted has more character. Alternative suggestions are a good good thing! I just avoid the area for nights out, so I really don't know the pubs around there at all.

Does the Marquis of Granby do food?

Is anybody still interested in going to see this tomorrow (or some other) night?

Hi Dan,
Sorry, I'm going to see

God, that didn't work, did it.
Hmmm, it looks so easy.
I'll try again.

So if that works, then you'll understand I'm going to see this. Have fun if you do go. If not then maybe another night.
