The Return of Jezebel James

This is completely legit, and you gotta love it. If you missed it, you can watch The Return of Jezebel James online (in wide-screen) at Fox’s official website. (Complete with limited commercials.)

Note that this is true of all of Fox’s shows, and other networks are also jumping on the 21’st-century bandwagon. You can get watch any of Fox’s shows online through their “Fox On Demand” service. (There’s also a link from elsewhere on Fox’s website.)

To select a show to watch, the interface is a little screwy. But once you do, you have your standard video-player controls. There’s also a scrolling list at the bottom you can use to select which episode to view, and a scrolling list on the left to select another show (if you want).

… T minus 9 days, and counting…

The Return of Jezebel James premiers Friday, March 14.

Here’s a tidbit from Berg Properties’ “Big Time Listings” blog. Parker Posey sold her East Village apartment for $1.31M, and bought a two-bedroom co-op unit in nearby Greenwich Village for $1.35M. (For you and I and other normal types, the “M” stands for “Million.”)

She already owns a $650,000 three-bedroom home in upstate New York, with the garden and the wilderness. And the fireplaces and the pool…

BTW, who can guess what movie the bedroom picture in the “Big Time Listings” post is from?

In other news, Parker was cornered by a guy with a video camera, and gave a little impromptu interview at the LAX airport.

Amongst the questions: “Why don’t you live in LA?”

Answer: “Because I live in New York! I can’t live here and live there at the same time!”

Hee hee. And if we jump into the time-machine, we might find this 2007 interview with Parker Posey, about Broken English (still a great film), Jezebel James, and the answer to the LA/NY question, “Why is it important to you to remain in New York and avoid te whole LA thing?”

I’ve been waiting for this independent film, starring Lauren Ambrose, Frank Langella, and Lili Taylor, about a grad student who reinvigorates the hopes and dreams of an old novelist.

The movie premiered at January’s Sundance Film Festival, where critics liked it. It’s based on the 1999 novel by Brian Morton, the story of a New York novelist, Leonard Schiller (Frank Langella). His books were once acclaimed, but now are out of print. He is close to his daughter Ariel (Lili Taylor), but otherwise keeps to himself in a structured, joyless existence… until grad student Heather Wolfe (Lauren Ambrose) decides to write her Master’s thesis on him and his work. In the process, she grows close to him, challenging him to accept that he’s “using his age to mask a deeper conflict.” Then she starts trudging through his life’s scars, including that of his long-deceased wife.

The film is coming to theaters—finally!—starting Friday, November 23.
