Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for January 26, 2025

Alice didn’t have cold dead eyes here at all.

Wow, this one is clever today!

She’s right, just watch closely. It’s like the actors are reading a book. But I never found it disturbing, until now.

Some are properly trained by memorizing their lines, others rely on a prompter so they read their lines!!

Oh boy, tv and movies will never look the same to me now.

Wait until someone in her preschool figures out how to turn their eyelids inside out.

Alice is totally right. And I’ve never seen anyone do that in real life.

Boy does she need a nap! LOL

The old cartoons WERE the best.

Two things that bug me (and maybe you too, now ☺) are actors who “whistle” slightly as they breathe, Dabney Coleman is like this; and “Vocal Fry”. Once it was pointed out to me, I can’t now not hear it, and it grates…

I noticed the eyes many years ago on a soap opera I used to watch.

Falling anvil? Is Wile E. Coyote up to his old tricks?

The plot and character development didn’t distract her

Now my eyes are wigging out! :)

GHA-

Some actors will read their scripts beforehand, and remember what emotion they should be projecting at a given moment, but don’t totally memorize the words, so will read from a teleprompter that is behind the camera.

Acme anvil going down. Fast.

Cartoons are the answer to everything!
