Auteur Watch - Hannah Hart

Oh, I LOVE people who have the same first letter in their first and last names... Paula Patton, Brigitte Bardot... guys too!  Tate Taylor?  Is that his name?  Director of The Help and Lee Daniels' The Butler?  Oh, wait.  Tate Taylor didn't direct that!  Anyway, certain lucky ones get to be a big deal like Hannah Hart.  She wears many hats: actress, producer, writer, self... pretty long IMDb Bio for someone so young and relevant.  Directing, well... that can be a different speed.  So many thousands of decisions to make.  So much responsibility, so little glory at the end of the day.  You might find yourself sleeping on the floor of the soundstage on the really tough weeks, but at least you're mobile!  Frees you up to get your rented outfit for the big awards shows at night.  So far she's directed two episodes of something called "My Drunk Kitchen."  Ah, how the kitchen has evolved over the decades.  In some households, the wife was supposed to be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen.  Then again, a household like that... would they really allow both?  Any Conservative (TM) (C) (R) household worth its weight in sea salt, they wouldn't allow the wife to be in the kitchen barefoot.  No sir.  Strictly high heels at all times.  It's a kitchen, not a bordello!  But these days, in Hollywood households, the kitchen's the biggest room in the house!  You need room in there to swing a cat or two.  All those knives and burning hot stoves... a more than perfect place to get drunk.  Some cooking sherry for the pan, the rest for my liver, that's my motto.  Fox News of course is responding in kind with its own reality cooking show called "My Drunk Supreme Court."  Gee, wonder what that's based on...
