Notes

Jack Lemmon got an Academy Award for his role in this movie, and it was during those times when it really mattered, because it’s a superb performance. Sad, slow and disturbing, but what a beautiful movie.

I want that girl in a Cole Porter song. I wanna see Lena Horne at the Cotton Club - hear Billie Holiday sing fine and mellow - walk in that kind of rain that never washes perfume away. I wanna be in love with something. Anything. Just the idea. A dog, a cat. Anything. Just something.
