Netflix, Kickstarter and Colonial

For those of you who have been waiting to hear the result, the Netflix thing seems to be working out. I guess that the first two discs they sent me that wouldn't play were just a fluke. Since then. I've played five of their DVDs without problems.
Frankly, I don't think that I will stay with this service every month, because there are not that many movies out or coming out that interest me, but I could use Netflix off-and-on.
I'm still working on the idea of turning my short story, THE OLD COOT, into a movie; trying to get funding via Kickstarter. I had a meeting with a production manager on Friday and we're going to continue to investigate if this project is viable. Stay tuned.
I was also working this past week with the people at Colonial Radio Theatre, who will be recording my play, HAIL ON THE CHIEF, as an audio dramatization. I am now told that we will probably record in July.
Finally, I have posted a review of BARRYMORE with Christopher Plummer on the Best Bets on DVD site, accessible via the the link in the Introduction section of this page, so take a look. Plummer is terrific.
You have a creative week.
Michael
