Brian De Palma and Me
It doesn't quite mean I was in a Brian De Palma movie but it's close! Ready for another Twilight Zone moment? I'm watching the great new De Palma documentary on NF when he mentions that he himself bought and paid for the New York Times ad for his film HOME MOVIES. The camera then shows this image (paused here) of said ad. BUT...that ad was NOT from the New York Times. I know this because if you look closely, you'll see that it has the same tape residue at upper left where I had it in a scrapbook for 25 years or so! THIS IS MY AD, taken from where I posted it on this blog back in 2006!!! And it was clipped from the Cannes Film Festival issue of Variety, NOT the New York Times. Cue Rod Serling.
