<< I just wondered. HBO had this TV movie version of the play Wit about the
woman dying of cancer who is a professor and into John Donne. I majored in
English Lit and it was so painful and excruciating to watch I cried and
cried and cried! but the acting and ddirection were brilliant. I mean,
being female and so many women get these cancers that could be me ten
years from now. *Shudder* Anyone on the list watch it or get hold or a
tape (or seeen thep lay?O) >>
Yeah, I watched it. Thought it was brilliant. Emma Thompson is an
extraordinary actress and her performance was amazing. Also incredibly gutsy.
I watched both my parents die of cancer, and this movie brought it all back
to me.
