Branagh and Thor...

With "Thor", for example, director Kenneth Branagh and co-star Anthony Hopkins would speak in a Shakespearean shorthand about how we wanted the characters to relate, or what exactly the scene was going to be like. Branagh would say something like, "You remember Act 3, Scene 2 Hamlet - ghost, wine, mum poisoned - done". And suddenly you know exactly what's required. It gave us an enormously sound reference library with which to communicate."

What should I wear to my Halloween party this year?

Ottawa buses...

The bus schedule you're given when you go to the OC Transpo 'Travel Planner' online is nothing like the schedule posted at the bus stop.

It's a moot point, since the buses don't match up with either schedule.

Still waiting... Not sure whether the bus I just missed was very early or very late.
