I must have seen 5 Sweeney Todds in the last two days. They played on on cable last night (with Ben Kingsley). It was not a musical.

then I saw (on youtube or google), the one with George Hearn and Angela Lansbury. Then today I saw anothr one made for BBC with David Warner.

And yesterday, I saw the one with Johnny Depp and Helen Bonham Carter.

I am Sweeney Todded to Death!!!!

Ah, Barbers did surgery???? AAAGHGH.


Reminds me when Alan took me to Colonial Williamsburgh and everybody there is dressed in period costumes. You thought you stepped back in time.

We were strolling around (I was actually bored to death but Alan was having the time of his life). and we walked into a Blacksmith place. And the guy was doing something to horseshoes, and there was this giant thing on the table and I happened to ask him what this giant thing was? And the actor (still in character), looks at me and says 'why Maam, I also pull teeth".

I never ran out of a place so fast in all my life. Alan burst out laughing and had to explain to the actor that I'm a dental phobic. I wouldn't go back in that place if you paid me a million dollars.

I still can't get over the fact that blacksmiths used to pull teeth.

Oh my god.

I would have died in Colonial Williamsburg.
