Ah great! I have to cavil—to make this lovely pic extra witchy they darkened it…but Pyewacket is a Siameser! I know you must have seen this wonderful film. Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving, and thanks for the ‘stack!
Oh Richard, you’re so right. I was bewitched by the still of Kim’s eyes and forgot the key kitty connection. WE ARE SIAMESE IF YOU PLEASE. WE ARE SIAMESE IF YOU DON’T PLEASE.
That’s how I felt, too. It’s very distracting because I’m supposed to be cramming these 2025 films, and perversely all I want to do is curl up with the Ghost and Mrs. Muir now.
Now, how could I have missed the email with your survey in it? Could it be that the buttloads of daily political, fundraising and advertising emails that pollute my inbox obscured it? No matter. With your permission, I'd like to throw my entries into the ring.
I've been a fan of Jon Winokur's books of quotations for a very long time, ever since I found "The Portable Curmudgeon" at a booksale.
As for movies (and TV programs) worth watching again, I'll cast my vote for two David Lynch creations:
Twin Peaks, the original series (1990), which I found used, for cheap, on blu-ray. I even found a cheap used blu-ray player to watch it on!
Eraserhead (1977), the Criterion edition. (In heaven, everything is fine!)
By the way, are you in Ithaca again? On vacation, or are you there for a function?
I am dying to get my own copy of the Portable Curmudgeon, this is a new discovery for me. And yes, David Lynch, always good holiday fun. I’m traveling with family and hooray, it’s a snow-covered morning. Beautiful.
My choice for these cold winter nights is Living on the Wind Across the Hemisphere with Migratory Birds
Hmmm. Thinking about this.

And WHY isn't there a Club Zodiac?
When I was doing door to door sales, I was held at bay by a Siamese cat--I believe they really can guard a temple.
Fantastic post Susie!! So many gems and reminders of things I’d forgotten I liked!! Happy Thanksgiving, and happy trails too. ❤️
