Matches used to be known as “Lucifers” here in the UK, probably because of the sulphur smell when struck.

I don’t know why, but like it.
There is something about the look on her face.

We’ve had this artist’s work here before, but I can’t remember his name

She’s carved out of natural wood.

Could be by sculptor Peter Demetz, but his look a little different to me.

Went a different direction with that, didn’t we.

More like Dick Tracy’s 2 way wrist radios, which were fairly prophetic as well…

Except cell phones use neither wired phone technology nor radio waves

Um, the radio waves are how the cell phone connects to the cell tower.

The waves are rather a high frequency, so they are close to microwaves, still radio.

Ok, thanks…. I didn’t know they were still called radio waves at that frequency.

I thought all-digital PCS and GSM transmission were something different from Dick Tracy’s connection.

I know they’re signal-splitting technologies, but I obviously don’t know much else about it!

Northern California too.

Always funny when tourists think they’re going to drive out to the “beach” and go swimming.

There are a few times at a few places it’s possible…

But mostly, after walking down a steep path from the parking lot, they find rocks, driftwood, and kelp… and a cold wind.

Even where swimming is possible, there’s often a dangerous undertow.

They can’t understand, because it’s supposed to be California

Where’s Peter Lorre?

I read that Henreid was not only the tallest, but the highest paid actor in this film, even though he had second billing.

Lorre had already made “The Maltese Falcon” with Bogie, plus being an international star from his role as a terrifying child killer in “M”, so he wasn’t exactly unknown.

His part wasn’t huge but in my memory he head more screen time then Henreid.

BTW Bergman reportedly resented being cast at 27 as the love interest for Bogie in his 40s and Henreid in his 30s.

Fasten-ating, too, Claude.

The ship was metally disturbed.

Ironic, isn’t it?

When it comes down to brass tacks, they should have steeled themselves for problems.

Ok, ok… whaddya want at 3 in the morning? Good puns?
