I did as you recommended and...Thank you, anonymous. I did as you recommended and signed up for email alerts and I also "liked" RFA on Facebook. <br /><br />Also, for you and other readers of this blog: there's a fascinating documentary (showing presently at NYC's IFC Center) called MARWENCAL, that presents the story of a man who, for self-therapy after suffering a physically and emotionally debilitating gang-beating in a bar parking lot, builds his own town in his front lawn, populating it with male action figures and Barbie dolls. They're all clothed in WWII regalia and equipped with military ordnance. He photographs these figures in various tableux, which serve to tell stories that allow him to heal emotionally and deal with his trauma. One of the primary action figures is "him," and he names several other figures after persons in his life.<br /><br />Shades of PALMER ELDRITCH!<br /><br />See it if and when you can in theatrical release, or look for it on NetFlix or dvd release if it makes it to either platform at some point! (I have no connection to the film or its subject, other than having seen the movie yesterday.)Robert Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06951286299515983901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2184123882936370131.post-54136161515407729412010-10-08T15:28:19.792-07:002010-10-08T15:28:19.792-07:00Sorry Robert!
