There seems to be little interest in finding the missing Wuxi, China Expats from Toronto, Canada. Since not finding them in Xihui Park, the International Expeditionary Force searching for them has been barracked in Gambay's Pub trying to think of a next move. The mobs gathering in Harry Moore Memorial Square seem more interested in protesting the price of Bobble Head Dolls, than lighting candles to maintain the hope that the missing Expats will be located, dead or alive. Wuxi China Expatdom and the World are still enraptured with WCE Prime Minister Mango who, rumour has it, will be eating Fettuccine Alfredo today at the WCE parliamentary cafeteria.
Orient Express, the official news service of the Expatdom, sent a reporter to Gambay's Pub. Patrons, when asked about the missing Wuxi Expats, quickly changed the topic to whether a good DVD copy of "True Grit" could be found. Fred Minkleman complained of having excess busts of the current IEF commander Karl Malden. "Malden heads are selling like cold cakes!" added Minkleman.
"True Grit", eh? How dare they steal that title from one the Duke's great movies?. I don't know anything about this new True Grit movie - and I don't want to.
ReplyDeleteNo, it is probably full of CGI, or fellow-traveller-feminist-Brokeback-themed tripery - not for me thank-you. Why, I suspect they even
crammed CGI techn-trickery into the Queen's Speech! Modern (so-called) movies......(grumble, grumble).
It is a Coen Brothers remake of the classic John Wayne film. It has been well received.
