for those people in the world who may ask "what the fuck was the Mule thinking when he married his musician lady?" I offer this photo.

I have a series of live performances or album-cover photo shoots of that lady wherein she looked remarkably like




this.


That doesn't excuse the mistake, mind you.

Bit it helps explain it.

Yes, you had an appalling tendency to think with your ... eyes.

I hate missing the first part of a conversation; it leaves me with such a feeling of "non-sequiturs." I thought we were discussing THE LAST METRO (not my favorite)and Woody Allen?

Mythical Monkey said...

It is The Last Metro and Woody Allen indeed.

As for missing the first part of the conversation, this one probably started in 1987. "Non-sequiturs" is pretty much what my friendship with Mister Muleboy is all about.

Let's at least give TCM some credit on this one. They at least tried to think of the most obscure Woody nom for the hint.

Yeah, Alice was Woody Allen during one of his periodic obscure phases. He's in one right now, apparently, since I'd never even heard of his latest release, You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger, until it showed up on DVD this week.
