The Sunday Intertitle: Not Waving

It may be the Day of Rest for you languid observants, but today I begin work proper on a new project of which I may not yet speak. The above intertitle may stand as a mute clew. If you can identify the film I’ll be mildly impressed, but I won’t confirm you’re right, except in private.
Also just finished a text essay for a new Blu-Ray release and an article for magazine publication: more on these shortly. So it’s been a busy week.
No let-up! Our first podcast will appear tomorrow, featuring me, Fiona and Momo the podcat. The Shadowcast will hopefully become an at-least-monthly fixture in all our lives. We recorded episode two last night…
