Just watched the most amusing (and in a certain part, rather slashy) movie. 'Twas called the Private Life of Sherlock Holmes, and as I discovered later, it was actually directed by Billy Wilder. A couple of choice quotes:

Watson: (in regards to the thought that slander might be being spread about him and Holmes, but the remark is seemingly apropos of nothing) Maybe we should get married.
Holmes: That would really get them talking.

Watson: Holmes, I hope I'm not being presumptuous, but... there have been women in your life, haven't there?
Holmes: The answer is yes.
(Watson breathes a sigh of relief)
Holmes: You're being presumptuous. Good night.

It also has the most sinister and damning recitation of the word "midgets" ever.


In other news...

...no WONDER I kept thinking the gent in Around the World in 80 Days was familiar. He's Steve Coogan. Who was Mole in the Practically-Monty-Python Wind in the Willows, and who (and I had not connected these dots until viewing imdb) played Alan Partridge in Knowing Me, Knowing You. (He also, as Phineas Fogg, reminds me of David Battley, who played Charlie's teacher in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, but that's neither here nor there.)

vegs? I meant vegas. Also, I meant your half ten icon, but I could do with the 'Violet' one I suppose.

*snerks* My favourite part of the "Violet" icon are his hands. On the left you have stick figures with 'Violet' and 'Klaus' written next to them, on the right, a stick figure with 'Whatever'.
