That title suggested itself to me as I logged into WordPress to make my Wrist to Forehead Sunday post. That is a silly way to put it. As if the title is an entity walking around looking for work. There is an absurdist play I read a long time ago, Six Characters in Search of an Author (I forget who wrote it and I may even have the title wrong); this would be A Title in Search of a Blog Post. As if it was some sort of honor or at least a good job to be the title of a blog post. Now I am becoming a little absurd myself.
This set was not in search of a play.
I wanted to throw in a picture to distract from my own silliness and decided to continue with the theatre theme with this shot of two guys working on a set. I believe it was for Fallen Angel, which was presented by Ilion Little Theatre back in 2017. I was not in that play but helped with costumes. I don’t imagine I was a lot of help, but one does what one can.
Oh yeah, these two.
This picture relates, because Fallen Angel was about an historical local murder case, just like the case of Grace Brown’s murder by Chester Gilette, which I think everybody around here has heard of. The portraits on the bottom are the real Chester and Grace, while the picture above is a reenactment from the documentary A Northwoods Elegy: Incident at Big Moose Lake. That is a good movie, by the way. I have it on DVD and now am thinking about watching it.
You see, my original plan for today was to watch a few movies while knitting, then do a Sunday Cinema post. I see by the clock on my Chromebook it is only 6:10 (my watch says 18:10, because it is on military time) (long story, not very interesting). I have time for at least one flick. Additionally, this silliness (absurdity?) has gotten me over 300 words. Score! Another on time blog post! Once again, I thank you for tuning in.
