we also in the evening watched a few DVD's, another one from the Hitchcock boxed set, Rope, can two collage students with all of their skills preform the perfect murder? talking of skills Hitchcock certainly had one, except the opening few moments the entire film is set in one apartment, but not for one moment does the film seem claustrophobic, Diana really enjoyed it although it was made long before she was born,
then a documentary about Sir Arther Conan Doyle, it appears that the character of Holmes was taken from a real life doctor, Dr. Joesph Bell, a fascinating DVD that had both Diana and myself enjoying every moment of it,
then a taste of pure evil, written by Oscar Wilde strangely enough after a meeting with Conan Doyle at the Langham Hotel in London, (which is why the Langham Hotel is mentioned so often in Holmes's adventures), I am rambling back to the DVD, Dorian Gray, we have both watched the black and white version and both agreed that Dorian was more handsome in the original than in this version, but never the less a good performance by all concerned, made all the better by being on Blu-Ray, another couple of episodes of Hill Street then painfully off to bed.
