Spent a lovely afternoon being treated to luncheon at East London-God
Save Brit Food on the Mehringdamm Corridor with two visiting jungen from Los
Angeles in the form of 24 year old LACMA Development Department sweetie Lord
Henry Woodward of Larchmont Village and his drag queen in training pal from the
Palisades Kent of Kent. The kids are
doing their European tour with pitstops in Berlin, Istanbul and the Venice Biennale. After hanging out with the children I
scurried on my bike to enjoy a very lovely sunny spring day. Was riding past the Jewish Memorial and
noticed a group of fetching tourista boys across the street snaping pics in
front of the giant austere dull grey cube sculpture created by that Scandinavian
artist pair Babbitt&Bromide or are they called Wahlgrens&Elmquest?Doesn’t
matter. Loved oogling the big leggy boys
but didn’t understand why they used that thing in the park as their backdrop.
Rising Stars, Falling Stars-We Must Have Music April edition was
packed with worshipers of the house of Ms. Jodie Foster for our screening of
her 1976 gangster moll film Bugsy Malone directed by Alan Parker and also starring
Scott Baio. It was a hoot seeing the
film after so many years. Ms. Foster was in town at the Babelsberg Studio
working on her Leni Riefensthal film.
Carolyn Clone the lesbian club mogul and one of Jodie’s ex girlfriends swore to me
that Jodie would stop by my film screening but she didn’t. I think Jodie is probably still upset with me
for writing about her relationship with her mother as being quasi
incestuous. Well that was the impression
I got when I first met them at the opening of the Famous Amos Cookie Store on
Sunset Blvd back in the 1970s. Seen enjoying
the charms of Bugsy: Arsenal Empress
