   Ah, there was Real Art Ways arts consultant Catherine Blinder, formerly married to Bill Curry, who lost the governor's seat to John G. Rowland.
   ...
   Blinder said, as if it were a rallying call.
   
   She was referring to Rowland's former commissioner of the Department of Children and Families because one issue debated in pretrial was whether Ragaglia's diary was admissible as evidence in a trial.
   
   "Rather than closing this scandalous chapter, it left lots and lots of chapters undone," Blinder said.
   ...
   "He made everybody feel like it was their special night out, even folks who knew him really well," said Catherine Blinder, a close friend.
   ...
   Hayes and a handful of close friends, including Wilkins and Blinder, gathered at his Simsbury home last month to watch "No Direction Home," Martin Scorsese's feature-length film biography of Dylan.
   ...
   And only now have Will K. Wilkins, director of Real Art Ways in Hartford, and his wife, Catherine Blinder, been released from their oath of silence.
   ...
   Blinder explains how this alternative rock group - which formed in 1986, disbanded in 1993 and reunited last year - found its way to the Real Art Ways cinema last Monday night.
   
   Three weeks ago, she got a call from "a mysterious guy from a film company," then from "a mysterious guy from a recording studio," inquiring about using the movie theater to screen a feature-length film. But because it was about "a very famous band," and those band members would be at the screening, it had to be kept secret so they wouldn't be bothered by fans.
   
   Blinder was thinking Rolling Stones.
   
   It was, in fact, the Pixies. Blinder drew a blank on the name, but Wilkins instantly recognized it, and others familiar with the band's music "went nuts," Blinder said, when they heard - after the secrecy ban was lifted of course.

   ...
   As for the film, which has the working title "loudquietloud," Blinder, who was one of the 13 people in the theater, described it as "extraordinary."

   "Catherine [Blinder] and Will [Wilkins] are very close friends of ours," Curry said.
