LEARNING LINES TONIGHT...
...because my acting teacher dropped a scene on me for class at the last minute. So no blogging today. However, here's the film the scene comes from (courtesy of Wikipedia):
Three Days of the Condor
Three Days of the Condor is a 1975 American action thriller film produced by Stanley Schneider and directed by Sydney Pollack. The screenplay, by Lorenzo Semple Jr. and David Rayfiel, was adapted from the novel Six Days of the Condor by James Grady.
The film is a suspense drama set in contemporary New York City, and is considered an exposition of the moral ambiguity of the actions of the United States government following the Vietnam War and Watergate. It stars Robert Redford as an employee of the Central Intelligence Agency who inadvertently becomes involved in a deadly power struggle within the agency.
The film was nominated for the 1976 Academy Award for Film Editing. Semple and Rayfiel received an Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America for Best Motion Picture Screenplay.

Great movie. Really great movie. We're doing the scene from the end when Redford and von Sydow calmly and casually discuss all the bloodshed and carnage they've just been dealing with. So I'm annoyed by the last minute nature of this, but really excited about the scene.
More regularly scheduled blogging tomorrow night.
And here's the trailer for Condor:
