When I was moving/reconfiguring my Doyle site a few months ago, I suddenly remembered that once upon a time, I had written a gigantic, 2,800-word discourse on “Non Nobis, Domine.” My capacity for excess verbiage used to be pretty nauseating. However, reading stuff like the The Constant Gardener piece referenced below makes me feel like… not so much of a geek. And after reading Samuel Crowl’s new book on Kenneth Branagh’s films, and after several years of not thinking about the score for Henry V, I suddenly have also realized that I probably have at least another 2,000 words in me about it. (After all, I never wrote anything about “O, for a Muse of fire!” or the music playing under the Salique Law speech. Seriously.) So someday, I’ll get around to that.
Another thing I want to write: Music in the Films of Peter Weir. I have no idea what to say, except that something probably needs to be said. (Just think, if I was in academia I’d be getting paid for this.)
