Audie Murphy in
To Hell and Back on AMC at 11:45am.
Since getting cable I’ve been running into Murphy in B Westerns and I found him to be an odd character. He’s the strong silent type with a long fuse, turning deadly when pushed to it; a classic American hero type, but he’s also a baby-faced naïf, which complicates the image. Turns out he’s an early reality star: the most-decorated soldier of WWII basically playing himself in Hollywood, and literally in To Hell and Back, his autobiography.
caught
mondovino tonight. great anti-wine-globalization doc.
9) Tommaso's 86th St Brooklyn.....great priced old wines plus when Chef Tom is cooking for you it can be quite excellent home-style hearty regional Italian....
anybody catch colbert last night? it was notable as the last show of the year but also because it had a green screen guitar solo challenge with the guitarist from the decembrists and colbert. colbert after donning the famed five necked guitar from cheap trick feigns injury only to be replaced by peter frampton and his
talk box. the challenge was anti-climatic but the show closed with the four guitarists (apples in stereo lead singer opened the show with a song and the dude from cheap trick who wrote the colbert themesong joined in) playing the themesong with colbert hooked up to the talkbox. that was the best moment. the morley safer, eliot spitzer and henry kissenger cameos created a surreal line-up. more bizarre than entertaining really.
