Good news came up the farm laneway in the form of a 5 ton truck sent<\/div>\n
loaded with gifts from Michael V.   Treasures ,really.  So here are<\/div>\n
some pictures and a few questions to which the only answer is \u201cGOOD!\u201d<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\u201cALAN, we need set dressing for a factory in ruins\u2026\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cMARJORIE, we need some things for village in 1950\u2019s\u2026i.e. oil storage tanks\u2026iron wheels.\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cALAN, we need some things for a back alley in a tough city.\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cMARJORIE, we need some things for a ship yard in ruins\u20261930\u2019s rusty\u2026broken\u2026forgotten\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cALAN  we need a disaster scene dressing\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cMARJORIE, The setting is a scrap yard.\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
“ALAN, we need rusty things left on a desert island in 1944.<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\u201cMARJORIE, I would not have this stuff on our lot.\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cALAN, This is ridiculous\u2026junk\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cMARJORIE, there is no place to keep this stuff.\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cALAN, we need a fake sunflower,,blooming in a junk yard.\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
\u201cMARJORIE we need a guy in short pants \u2026goof\/\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n
ALAN. I would not allow this stuff..\u201d<\/div>\n
GOOD<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
THANKFULLY few people know the secret of good set<\/div>\n
dressing.  Do you really want to know? Good set dressing<\/div>\n
must be beaten and twisted, torn and paint chipped, weathered and<\/div>\n
dying.  Why?  Because then and only then does a motion picture<\/div>\n
set capture the human condition. I\u2019m talking about serious drama\u2026<\/div>\n
not the fluffy stuff.  Take a close look around the real world.<\/div>\n
