Last day of my holiday in Spain 🇪🇸

Haven't Eurovision posted in a while

Something I wish to see more on ESC, is multilanguage songs.

Half their own language, half English.

A few examples of this: Voltaj - De La Capat/All Over Again, and Amir - J'ai Cherché.

I think the move could be interesting. Half cultural and half English for everybody. Little bit of both. Why not both? Both is good.

Little sweetie honeypie. That last pic in particular just sends me. Those eyes!

From: "The Lost One: A Life of Peter Lorre" by Stephen D. Youngkin:

"Lorre enjoyed what he described as a break from caricature roles and fed the press an enriched picture of Smiley: 'I play a very nice man. . . . On one hand I can count the times I’ve been a nice man. I enjoy being normal.'"

Incidentally, Scent of Mystery comes up in this lovely "What's My Line?" appearance! Skip ahead to 17:47 to see him as the special guest. Go to 20:22 to see the reveal to the panel and picture promotion.

"Are you a sad-eyed, innocent villain in pictures?" "Yes, I'm afraid I am." *giggles*

I was thinking of that show recently and how I'd have loved to have been one of the panel and furtively but effectively slipped him a note to meet me backstage. 🔥

Back to the movie, here's another shot of Peter eating that apple. There's something so delectable about seeing him eat. Nourish yourself, Peter!

Being the comic cabdriver...

I just love this title card with him beaming above his character name:

More from "The Lost One: A Life of Peter Lorre":

"Lorre’s role as Smiley, the sardonic cabby, is a study of the film in microcosm. His part was 'an intentional light-hearted caricature of his typical screen image,' claimed [Mike] Todd. 'A possibly sinister, shadowy figure who may be in league with the bad guys while appearing to help the hero. . . . he is only projecting a facade of mystery and underworld connections to maintain an image.' "Reading the script, it is easy to imagine Lorre scratching at the already thin veneer of villainy and exposing the humor in Smiley’s inane gabble: "'Fifteen years ago in Marrekesh [sic] when I was still driving a camel, there was a girl,' he blathers. 'Lucky for me I came to my senses. I sold my camel . . . and I have not been back to Marrekesh since. Otherwise today . . . and I shudder to think of it . . . today I would be a happily married man. And it could happen to you. . . . it can happen to anyone if he isn’t careful. You must have friends who got married. . . .Let them be a lesson to you. . .' [A short time later] 'Every man should have a wife. I once stole the wife of a friend of mine in Casablanca. . . . He had two. I only took the small one.' "But these scenes are gone in the finished film, as are many others whose dialogue ideally suited the artless and off-center waggery of the 'Good Soldier Svejk.'" Instead of emerging as a mischievous rogue, Smiley merely supplies a touch of local color."

I've been flipping through the movie today and it seems at least a couple of the above lines came through. Watch "Scent of Mystery / Holiday in Spain" here.

I think Doffy loves Christmas. Fucking loves it. Adores it. It's a holiday focused on families. And he'd try to make everything perfect for the Donquixote family but somehow, after Cora's death, everything always goes wrong and it's so overwhelming and stressful that he cancels the whole thing. And in the end, he just spends Christmas drinking and crying, missing his brother and hating himself.
