I join the blogosphere, intending to stay in touch with friends, and forcing myself to write regularly. Usually I will write about movies. I aim to only post if the writing is thoughtful and provocative. Or funny.
Today, the latter:
I had a hard time thinking of a title for the blog. Nothing really catchy came to mind, and I didn’t want to have a generic name about watching movies. Then I remembered an hilarious conversation I had with my friend Gary. The blog title has no significance aside from this witty laugh.
Phil: “Isn’t it neat how some people call Mamet the American Shakespeare?”
Gary: “Yeah, Tom Stoppard’s the English Shakespeare.”
