Fall, finally (briefly)

Shana tova, Rosh Hashanah-celebrating friends. I am starting the new year by eating snacks and writing noncon. *facepalm*

It FINALLY cooled off -- "fun" fact, Boston almost beat its record for number of consecutive nights when the low didn't go below 60F -- so I am ready to acknowledge the approach of autumn, my favorite season. Will this be the year I finally make that Grim Reapers vid? Probably not, looking at the rest of the fannish to-do list.

Late October is shaping up to be fun!

- Employer-sponsored screening of The Mummy (1932)

- National Theatre Live reprise of Frankenstein - so now I can see Benedict Cumberbatch as the creature and Jonny Lee Miller as Victor to complement the last time it screened here

- "Frankenweek" programming at Harvard, including a day-long symposium and series of Film Archive screenings, four of which I haven't yet seen: The Curse of Frankenstein, Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed, Abbot & Costello Meet Frankenstein, Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man

- Pumpkins? This year's theme at the Providence zoo jack-o-lanterns show involves magic, myths and superheroes. Granted, nothing will beat the year they did postage stamps.

I didn't realize you have never seen Curse of Frankenstein! Well, now we extra have to go. For the Cheekbones of Scientific Obsessiveness, of course.

Seconded.
