Paris: Day Four (Dinner At Home)

January 7th, 2014 § 1 comment

Off to market day on nearby Boulevard des Batignolles. Picked up cheese, charcuterie, fresh pasta, salad greens, olives, two types of tapenade (black olive and green olive). BSK tucked a long baguette from the corner bakery under her arm. Casual dinner at home (Beautiful Granddaughter Sofia slightly ill). Ate the market’s delicious offerings, drank red Corbieres and then were off to nearby Pathe Wepler to see Le Loup (Wolf) de Wall Street. Basically, Goodfellas translated to the hysterical penny stock market of the 1980’s. Bad boys acting badly. Lots of nudity featuring young ladies with surgical enhancements. Martin Scorcese’s manic and creative directorial energy infuses the film and makes it worthwhile. For HG however, the mad, macho life of drugs and hookers did not seem very appetizing.

§ One Response to Paris: Day Four (Dinner At Home)

  • Just happened to have rented Raging Bull because I told Susan that I remember its power from30 years ago. Still has that power, but I was struck by how ugly the world created by Martin Scorcese was and–based on HG’s report on “Wolves,” still is. How wonderful to be in Paree. More reports, please.
