Great choice of pictures (the TV fantasy!). And your picspam is much enjoyable as was the related gallery - thanks for sharing!

As for links: if you're curious, the original play (http://historyofideas.org/toc/modeng/public/SynPlay.html) is available on line. Not easy to read at first, written in early 20th century Irish, but it does bring some coherence to the story IMO. Now they've done a great job in transcribing it to a movie, different country, different time, different language and the movie does stand its own. With the added bonus of puppy Callum, dorky, surprisinly lucid (I'm not strange, I just spent too much time alone.). And pretty. A review in Interpreting prairie cinema (http://members.shaw.ca/horne/prairiecinema.html) (very long, you have to scroll down 3/4 to find the bit about Paris). And a Payback (http://www.playbackonline.ca/articles/magazine/19940801/3668.html) article on the making of the movie.
