This amuses me.

A couple of days ago I rented two films, All Through the Night staring Bogart and Lorre (& his second wife, don't ask me why I know these things) and Victor Hugo's The Man Who Laughs. Well, turns out Condrad Veidt, well known as Cesare (What/Who Dr. Caligari keeps in his cabinet) also stars in All Through the Night with P.Lorre. And, on top of that, Veidt plays Orlac(in the 1924 version, which is i guess the first film version) of the Hands of Orlac, this particular story was later adapted (in 1935) and became the film Mad Love, which was one of the first American Hollywood "horror" films not to feature some sort of "monster", i.e. Dracula, Frankenstein, etc. P.Lorre plays Doctor Gogol in the film Mad Love. I am a Film dork. All of these films are available on DVD or VHS, i recommend that you view them.

On a more personal note, I'll be doing this! for the next 16 weeks. I'm so glad that I'm going to be making work again.
