Subject: 1/12/91 - Obscure? From: bam@rudedog.asd.sgi.com (Brian McClendon) Date: 1991-01-14, 00:04 Newsgroups: alt.tv.twin-peaks Since no one has mentioned it yet, the brother talking to James was pretty impressive for so lame a story line. "I'm sorry, am I being obscure?" - maybe this is so obvious (a reference to the show in general) that people weren't impressed, but I thought it was hilarious. Also, I had never seem _The_Hustler_ before tonight and was pleasantly surprised to see Piper Laurie in it. I don't remember anyone on a.tv.tp mentioning this: PL's character name is: Sarah Packard! In Twin Peaks, she was formerly Catherine Packard! Yet another, somewhat subtle, movie reference. BTW, the new CBS/Fox letterboxed LD release of the Hustler is gorgeous!!! -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian McClendon bam@rudedog.SGI.COM ...!uunet!sgi!rudedog!bam 415-335-1110 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
