groggyI remember peering through the curtains when Mrs McCarthy next door was bundled into an ambulance for Woman Trouble; it was kind of endemic.
Saw a strange curio on Film 4; THE THIEF, a cloak and dagger tale with no dialogue whatever, starring Ray Milland. It was actually pretty dull, but very stylishly noir, and it was nice to see the Manhattan of my childhood; the smoke-ring blowing Camel billboard, the automat, etc.
Another world...
