I love the idea of somebody in 1944 (or now) hearing of a movie called CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY starring Deanna Durbin and Gene Kelly, thinking "That sounds like a heartwarming holiday romp," and being exposed to this: youtu.be/sBVWLwwkt3I

@semidetached 😍 I don’t know what it was, but Deanna Durbin was mesmerizing in that role. And what a set up!! Who knew flights to SF could suffer such gothic interruptions!?!?

@nicole Glad you took the bait! I agree, Durbin is surprisingly compelling in "fallen woman" mode. And the whole scenario/structure . . . When we got to the first Liebestod moment, Ray said, "OK, now we're in Bunuel territory."

@semidetached I found myself clapping along with the audience at the end of that scene. 😂 Chibi looked at me like I had gone mad.

@nicole Going mad is the appropriate response!

Basic models of flocking behavior are controlled by three simple rules: 1) separation: avoid crowding neighbours (short range repulsion); 2) alignment: steer towards average heading of neighbors; 3) cohesion: steer towards average position of neighbors (long range attraction). With these three simple rules, the flock moves in an extremely realistic way.
