claudine is coming! claudine is coming!

i love Claudine.  i don’t own it because…? *scratches head*

I was watching Frost/Nixon last week.  It’s a thoroughly engaging movie, chock full of information and nuance about a tumultuous period in our history.  Yet, I was distracted and fascinated by a quick aside.  David Frost was engaged to Diahann Carroll in the early 70s.  Of course, I go from Wiki to Netflix in just a few clicks.  I need to see Claudine, ’cause it’s been ages.

Here’s a little piece of Diahann Carroll’s Oscar-nominated performance.  I have to wait until tomorrow for the full experience.  No mail today.

  1. As a youngster, I mentally checked out on “Claudine” when ol’ girl got beat with a hairbrush. Belts, switches, extension cords–I understand. But if you truly love me (and you’re not Naomi Campbell), you will not use our beauty supplies to discipline me. See what historical oppression does to a people?
