| Content and context |
Adored the postcard that Beaton sent of the bull fighter. Hopes that the good weather in England is doing Beaton's garden good. Is nearing the end of his book. When it is finished, he is going to do a 'mile of handsprings and dance a tarantella in the piazza'. Will probably leave Sicily around the 10th June. Does not know where they will go yet. Will go to New York in September. Discusses a film that is being made in town called "The Light Touch". He acted as an extra in one scene and it was 'quite a lark'. Discusses the tourists in Sicily. Hopes that things are moving towards a production of 'G.G.' [Gainsborough Girls]. The fortune teller, Franz Werner is returning next week, and he will consult with him immediately. |
