From Graham Nash’s Wild Tales:

“…on March 15, after our show in Ottawa, Canada, I went to a party thrown by our record company’s local rep at our hotel. It was the usual corporate affair , impersonal and aimless. I grabbed a ginger ale and was about to make my escape when I noticed a striking woman sitting in the corner by herself. Absolutely beautiful: great face, long blonde hair cut in Cleopatra bangs, extremely short pale blue dress, sapphire eyes… So I shouldered over and introduced myself.

“I know who you are,” she said slyly. “That’s why I’m here.”

Thus began the relationship of Joni Mitchell and Graham Nash on this day in 1968. Intense, passionate and ultimately tragic, the relationship produced such songs as “Our House”, “Willy”, “Blue”, “Simple Man”, and “River”. It also inspired mutual friend Neil Young’s “Only Love Can Break Your Heart”.

A rare photo of Stanley Kubrick on the set of BARRY LYNDON. Still photographer: Keith Hamshere.

BTW- I’ve heard that 1 shot in Barry Lyndon was done (following very specific instructions) by none other than a very young Tony Scott!

And here’s the story, told by Tom Cruise:

“Tony said he sat there for a couple of weeks trying to get the right light.”

Eighteen months ago the first evidence of intelligent life off the Earth was discovered. lt was buried 40 feet below the lunar surface near the crater Tycho. Except for a single, very powerful radio emission aimed at Jupiter the 4-million-year-old monolith has remained completely inert, its origin and purpose still a total mystery.
