The sales of pinot noir are also up since the movie came out, simply because the lead character, Miles, adores it! Heck. I even bought some Saturday night...and I did note a flutter of asparagus.
This weekend I also got to see the Dali exhibit currently at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. We had a docent tour and a brunch following, sponsored by the Drexel Alumni Association. The tour guided us through the over 300-piece exhibition in one hour. She did her homework and knew what certain things in his peices "stood for". But she admitted at the end of the tour that although she understood Dali's work, she did not like it! I feel gipped that someone who had no passion for his work gave us a tour. Blah. She kept pointing to things in the peices and saying "Look at this and that..and this here..this is bizarre...". Well DUH - of course an image of a woman with a vagina face is bizzare.
The best part of the exhibit was seeing a hologram that Dali made in '73 of Alice Cooper and his brain. Cool.
