If...

If...
  • Truman Capote had had his way, Breakfast at Tiffany's would have starred Marilyn Monroe and if Blake Edwards had had his way the co-star would have been Steve McQueen. Now imagine that film!
  • I were in London this weekend, I would go to see Breakfast at Tiffany's on the big screen.
  • I were in New York this weekend, I would go to a party at my friend Montse's place; she's a jazz aficionado (and knows how correctly to pronounce that word), and has invited a number of jazz musician friends and relatives who in my imagination will start jamming after suitable intoxication has been achieved.
  • I am unable to invent (or find some wizard at MIT who has invented) a transporter before this evening, I'm going to stay in Boston this weekend. It has just snowed another 15 cm. I planned for this contingency by buying several bottles of wine, much cheese, and a few veggies. Maybe this is the weekend I'll finally watch The Mirror and Kagemusha.

lula -- if is the essence of my life.

MM - exactly!

shopgirl - actually it was pretty nice in the end (the cheese was good!)

if jane -- just like there are fantasy sports league, there should be fantasy films of actors and directors that never worked together...
