Actually the next town over, but close enough. Also down the road from Christie's home.
Funny thing: I saw the movie in the cinema that makes a brief appearance in the film, sitting a few rows behind where the scene was shot.

I remember Tim Powers describing his process at an EasterCon a while ago which sounded like an even more advanced version of this, but it involved written vignettes or essays colour-doded and connected by string but spread out on the floor so he could move them around as he added more material.

The single best line from any rpg ever is from a random encounter table in Anomalous Subsurface Environment by Patrick Wetmore. Still kills me every time

In 1978, you saw the film in the cinema or you didn't see it at all. Having spent the princely sum of £1.50 or whatever, most people weren't going to be looking anywhere but at the focal point of the scene. It's not as though they could replay the scene or pause it for close examination.

You're okay with calling John by his name, but you want it to be _her_ name? Now you're just being the a_hole yourself, mate.

The question is, if it takes years to transition — which it does, all "us people" know it — when do you switch to calling yourself by the pronouns and chosen name suitable? Is it only at the end of the process? /…
