andrew hill same actress? palace at 4am

listening to andrew hill, grass roots, on cd, actually the second half now, a different band, not quite so beautifully recorded, maybe a little more out there & wayward like he was when i saw him a few years ago here in london, lovely, lovely, lovely.

watched an italian film last night with K, the son's room, 2 things:

firstly is the actress that played the daughter the same actress who played giorgia in the best of youth?

YES. she is, a little look on the web tells me, jasmine trinca. fantastic in both films, best of youth a later film and a meatier part, similar shot at one point which i don't want to tell you about in case you haven't seen either film, so look away,

then secondly, at some point there is a character called Arianna, who writes in a letter: "this letter will not be as beautiful as the letter you wrote me...", then another character spends a long time trying to write to her, to no avail,

echoes someone in my life, who hasn't been in my life for awhile but who pops her head up occasionally and i really should write to, texted me just before my birthday saying she knew my birthday was around now & loveliness & loveliness and when i tried to text back i found i couldn't, couldn't match how lovely she'd been,... i have some things of hers, a letter & a parcel is due,

andrew hill hitting a certain spot between straight ahead and wayward as i write,

lastly, i saw a dance thing mentioned in timeout, the palace at 4am, where do i know that title from?
