	Review 'Love Is Where It Falls' by Simon Callow : Pif No. 29 - October 1999
		Simon Callow, actor, director, and author of Love Is Where It Falls: The Story of a Passionate Friendship, is all too familiar with the aching and exhilarating extremes of living.
		Callow's tale begins in his first encounter with the daunting Margaret Ramsay, the result of a "chance meeting" at her agency when she snares him at the receptionist's desk and then half propels, half coerces the young actor into the lair of her inner office.
		Callow is the very type of Shakespeare's speaker in the sonnets, caught between the dark lady and the golden boy (though in Callow's case, Ramsay's "fine golden hair" is the foil to the "dark glamour" of Aziz).

	The Night of the Hunter - Simon Callow
		Callow considers the film "a supreme example of the integrated work of a team", and much of his focus is on explaining how the team came and worked together to create this film.
		Callow correctly emphasizes the success of the score (hard as that is to convincingly explain on the page), noting also that Laughton "overshot" the film so it film could then be cut to fit the score.
		Simon Callow's introduction offers useful background information about the film, especially regarding the novel it was based on (which was still fresh in the minds of audiences of 1955, but has since been practically completely forgotten).

		Callow leans across the table to murmur that he is a member here because he loathes all other clubs.
		Callow, whose face is in two halves, patrician forehead and colourless, austere eyes above a comically bulbous nose and fruity mouth, had been expounding expansively, with much gesturing of arms and flicking of curls, on his own gifts and weaknesses as an actor.
		Callow thinks that, due to their upbringings, he and Ramsay shared not only 'a skittish contradictory quality' but also 'a core of unexplained grief.

		When Simon Callow started the play by stepping between the curtains and addressing the audience as if it were composed of the ladies of the Chichester Women's Institute, a silence descended, not a silence of concentration but heavy, inert and rancorous.
		There was a fat man in the front row, he said, who stared fixedly at him during the curtain call, and gave him a very personal slow handclap, which he continued after everyone else had stopped clapping - the worst audience, he said, the worst audience he'd ever - absolutely the worst.
		He has a laugh that could fill, or perhaps empty, a cathedral, it is a cheering noise, it comes from a deep relish of the awfulness of life as well as of its pleasures.
