What could have been...

Here is a stunning trailer I just found on Cartoon Brew. Made in 2004 for a movie that never got made. Siegfried, based on the graphic novel by Dargaud. Directed by Alex Alice at Pendragon Imageforce. One wonders what the film would have been like. I never saw Beowolf, but it looks like this would have been a thousand times better.

It has been a very full couple of weeks! Enjoyed last Saturday Christmas shopping with my friend Paul... snooping through antique stores, gift shops and book stores, including a very chic antique place called Flower Child that features vintage mid-century furniture (think martini glasses and Danish modern furniture and those light-up china Christmas trees). Sunday, I went with Paul and his friends, Diane and Mindy to hear the Cleveland Philharmonic play Peter and the Wolf, accompanied not just by a narrator, but also a dance troupe, the Verb Ballets! Then finished the weekend by decorating my Christmas tree.

This Saturday, made the pilgrimage to A Christmas Story house...

then continued in the Christmas spirit on a leisurely drive through downtown to Cleveland Playhouse to see the Festival of Trees.



Made our way up to Coventry and had a late lunch at Hunan Coventry and, of course, spent a lot of time at Big Fun and City Buddha.
