The Dashwood Family Album: Volume XIX
After their impromptu night of passion, instigated by Robert, Miles didn't call. Robert is determined this time not to be the one doing all the chasing, so he's getting on with his life, and taking Lulu to the country park to burn off some of her Hyper energy.
Tumblr media
They are greeted by the very vocal Rover.
Tumblr media
And have a lot of fun together.
Tumblr media
Being a Vegetarian, Robert can't help wondering whether the mushrooms that are now springing up thanks to the autumn rain might be edible...
Tumblr media
It almost seems like fate - except as a dedicated scientist, of course he doesn't believe in such things - when he bumps into the Matchmaker.
Tumblr media
She assures him that for a very reasonable fee, she can find his soulmate.
Tumblr media
He's sure it must all be nonsense, but her patter is so convincing, and his fear of living the rest of his life alone is so real, that he decides it must at least be worth a try - for science.
Tumblr media
Enter Professor Lance Warner!
Tumblr media
Well, Lance is a highly educated Sim, so the Matchmaker is positive that he and Robert are made for each other!
Tumblr media
They certainly agree that Henry Crawford is a bit of all right! (And Lulu and Rover are getting on famously.)
Tumblr media
But that's about the only thing they have in common.
Tumblr media
No, Lance is not interested in hearing about the fascinating social habits of the great red wood ant!
Tumblr media
All in all, the blind date is just a horribly humiliating experience for Robert, and he sincerely wishes that he hadn't parted with his money. That's the last time he'll be taken in by a scam artist!
Tumblr media
Ah well, as a Dog Person, at least he still has it, when it comes to bonding with the canines of Merybury.

Anyway, meet The Matchmaker and his partner in crime Lucille! They like to meddle in the love lives of mortals, but be warned: their services always have a price.

Remembering Karl Wallinger 1957-2024
Musician Karl Wallinger has died at 68. Total bummer. He was a member of The Waterboys from 1983-85 (I know mostly their late 80s / early 90s work. But he really found his voice as the leader of World Party, a highly underrated college radio band from 1986-2015. They had a string of bangers like "Ship of Fools", "Way Down Now" (an MTV Buzz Bin video I remember seeing as a teen), and "She's the One" (featured on a few soundtracks including The Matchmaker, which I was a Location Intern on). I remember seeing them on SNL and the MTV VMA's.
youtube
Music video for "Way Down Now"
In addition to his own music, Wallinger was did the music for Ben Stiller's Reality Bites. World Party appeared on the soundtrack with "When You Come Back to Me", which beared a striking resemblance to David Bowie's "Young Americans". World Party also contributed a cover of Mott the Hoople's "All the Young Dudes" to the soundtrack to Clueless as well. He also collaborated with Sinead O'Connor, Peter Gabriel, and Bob Geldof.

Shirley MacLaine and Anthony Perkins in The Matchmaker (Joseph Anthony, 1958)
Cast: Shirley Booth, Anthony Perkins, Shirley MacLaine, Paul Ford, Robert Morse, Perry Wilson, Wallace Ford, Russell Collins. Screenplay: John Michael Hayes, based on a play by Thornton Wilder. Cinematography: Charles Lang. Art direction: Roland Anderson, Hal Pereira. Film editing: Howard A. Smith. Music: Adolph Deutsch. 
Like Lynn Riggs's Green Grow the Lilacs and Ferenc Molnár's Liliom, Thornton Wilder's play The Matchmaker is not performed much these days. The chief reason is probably that they were all made into hugely successful musicals: respectively, Oklahoma!, Carousel, and Hello, Dolly! And unlike George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion or William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, which weren't superseded by their musical incarnations My Fair Lady and West Side Story, they seem somewhat naked without their musical adornments. Still, the film version of The Matchmaker, made three years after the play became a Broadway success but six years before the musical smash, retains a great deal of charm. Much of it comes from its cast: Shirley Booth as Dolly Gallagher Levi, Paul Ford as Horace Vandergelder, Shirley MacLaine as Irene Molloy, Anthony Perkins as Cornelius Hackl, and in his first substantial screen role, an impish Robert Morse as Barnaby Tucker. Shorn of its musical trimmings, the movie depends largely on the farce-timing of the cast, who frequently break the fourth wall to talk directly to the audience. For some viewers, a little whimsy goes a long way, and The Matchmaker has an awful lot of it. Its "opening up" from the stage version by screenwriter John Michael Hayes sometimes feels forced, and the ending depends too heavily on an unconvincingly complete about-face by Vandergelder. But director Anthony, who did most of his work in the theater and had only one previous screen directing credit for The Rainmaker (1956), keeps things moving nicely.
