Blogging Addiction Rehab

Having posted fast and furiously yesterday, I’ve begged my boss for a three-day weekend, and CultureGrrl graciously acceded. This weekend encompasses the trifecta of Good Friday, Easter and (still) Passover, so I suspect few of you want to hear my whining and kvetching anyway.
I leave you with this link to what I thought was a terrifically well written review by NY Times movie critic A.O. Scott of Clifford Irving‘s strange saga, “The Hoax.” I guess I’ve got to see that flick, because I’m working on my own book proposal for a biography (factual, I hope!). To get myself in the mood, I’m reading Nigel Hamilton‘s new book, Biography: A Brief History.
If for nothing else, Scott’s review would have won my admiration for the observation that Richard Gere‘s performance was “one of his best since middle age liberated his wily charm from his leading-man image.” We should all age so gracefully—even those of us who are a step ahead of Gere, not requiring any “liberation” from movie-star looks!
