I forgot to mention Wednesday evening with everything that just happened this morning! Talk about a wonderful time! Meg even came home in time to ride with us to the theater.
They had a special series of trivia playing before everything got started, like what was used to create the funnel of the twister: A. a rubber hose, B. a giant muslin stocking, C. footage from a real tornado... and one other thing... We were in there long enough to see the whole rotation.
Robert Osborne, from TCM, was our host. It was nice to see a "familiar face" on the big screen! And Angela Landsbury narrated the short intro film on the making of it. I was already liking this a lot. And then the film itself. I can't begin to explain how nice it was to see something from the '30's as if it was the '30's. I was simply transported by the whole event. They said they adjusted the picture to fit the original size it was released in, so there were blank sides to the edges of the screen. The theater was pretty crowded, but we were able to grab seats in the center of the fourth row for our party of 7.
And now I'm still singing about bluebirds flying someplace.
