Heard David Hare being interviewed on the Today programme this morning, about the screenplay for The Hours. He talked about how it was genre-defying, "don't you hate it when you go to the cinema and it's an action movie, or a dot-com romance," he said. Name me one dot-com romance. C'mon, David.

Sideline - the way he described The Hours, (Cunningham's book, based on Woolf's Mrs Dalloway), it sounded remarkably like the Bridge Over San Luis Rey, plot-wise. Accidental connections.

It's the preview tonight, dontcha know. Call me topical, if you will.
