A complaint

Why doesn't there seem to be an easily accessible DVD of "The Fabulous Baker Boys"? I had to buy my big brother a VHS copy.

I was stunned and outraged when I discovered, during a Sunday jazz brunch at Manuel's in Austin, that this brother had never seen that film. As I found after he got it, watched it, and drooled, he'd once met Michelle Pfeiffer at some school thing for kids. He didn't pounce, damn him.

The soap opera that I watched almost religiously from 1982 until 1994, "The Young and the Restless," stole the Pfeiffer-on-the-piano scene. The soap also stole the orgasm scene from "When Harry Met Sally."

Another bit of rambling: In my youth, back before videos, I watched "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" more than once. Ten cents a dance.
