From James B. Harris' Fast-Walking.

You'll wish you hadn't said that on the way down.
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it, Toestubs!
ReplyDeleteDid I ever bore you with my reciting of Mr. McIntire's dialog? I must have.
McIntire (and Fast-Walking) will be the focus of a future Ivanlandia mega-post...as soon as we've completed resettling the Imperial Palace...
It was so hot here last night, that despite my exhaustion, I could not sleep.
I hear if you rest your feet on a small black child, that will draw out the rheumatism.
ReplyDeleteThe thing I admire about this performance is that McIntire's a little fey in his delivery, not the typical badass by any stretch. It adds to the menace and is in keeping with his narcissistic character, a guy with all these grand ambitions who'll actually do the movie-villain thing of explaining his plans to his adversary in one big monologue.
