[MD] Latest Phaedrus?

[MarshaV]

Ian,

I don't visit your blog nearly enough; I will correct that bit of irresponsible neglect.

Btw, I find very few movies I enjoy watching, but on Netflix I found a 
series called "The Dialogue:" which is a very interesting set of 
interviews with writers and screenwriters. For example:

I've watched three and they've all been great.
