more tales of slightly inappropriate movies for 8 year olds in the 70s.
was about to see if i could get into nickelodeon on tcm. have a fading memory of visiting a friend who moved to manhattan after first grade and we were going to see it but maybe it was sold out and we ended up seeing silver streak instead. just checked and they both came out december of 76 so im guessing it was over the christmas break.
nickelodeon was directed by bogdanovich of last picture show fame. he kind of flamed out as a director but excels as a link to old hollywood. they mentioned he is doing a podcast along with tcm. looks like it hasnt come out yet but you can subscribe.
haha. i found my friend. think we fell out a year or two later. those "long distance" friendships rarely keep at that age.
interesting path.
another friend who was appelbaums neighbor and moved after 4th grade. maybe 5th. most vivid memory is listening to his parents tom lehrer comedy albums. also he was goalie on my soccer team.
one went to yale, the other to princeton. i really peaked intellectually, friend-wise, in elementary school. i mean, brown is a good school too.
when is my peak?
