So the OFFs (Old Fandom Friends) and I have admired the considerable assets of ODAE (Obi-Wan Dressed as Ewan Mcgregor) for many years. Salmon Fishing in the Yemen hit
econopodder 's ODAE-radar and she decided we HAD to see it.
knitress was going to come but there was a ticket snafu alas and
lexsara was waiting for a refrigerator so it was just me and
econopodder in the theater (I did not see anyone confirmed by the Senate or elected by popular mandate which is unusual in this particular theater). But the three of us got coffee afterward and I told my OFFs about what a depraved reprobate I am.
But, back to ODAE, reflecting that we all are getting along in the years, no longer struts his Jedi stuff and doesn't go Fully Monty any more (which he used to be counted upon to do reliably (Velvet Goldmine, Pillowbook) but really this is just a delightful film. Granted it is not QDAL (Qui Gon Dressed as Liam Neeson)
with Wolves but instead we get Obi-Wan with fish. As Qui-Gon said, "there's always a bigger fish" which just had to be said, even if not relevant.
