Janet’s Tea Party
From Log24.net, Oct. 5, 2004:
For Janet Leigh,
who died on Sunday, Oct. 3, 2004:MARCO – What’s your last name?
ROSIE
– Chaney. I’m production assistant for a man named Justin
who had two hits last season. I live on 54th Street, a few doors
from the Modern Museum of Art, of which I’m a “tea privileges”
member, no cream. I live at 53 West 54th Street, apartment
3B. Can you remember that?MARCO – Yes.
On the redesigned
Museum of Modern Art,
11 West 53rd Street:“… the ultimate judgment will have to wait: Taniguchi himself told
a MoMA curator who’d complimented him that considering the building
without the art in it is like admiring the tea cup without the green
tea. Next month the museum will have art on the walls and crowds in the
galleries—and then the tea ceremony will begin.”– Cathleen McGuigan, Newsweek,
