Just wanted to let you know that John did pass away yesterday with Thelma at his side. Thank you all again for the wonderful vibes. I'm sure they helped to ease his passing.

Sorry for yours and Thelma's loss, Danise.

Cooling vibes for those facing another scorcher today.

Post by: John G. on July 05, 2012, 03:58:31 AM: TOD: When I was 7, we went to visit family in Germany. On the Fourth of July, we were in Heidelberg where the Americans set off a huge fireworks show over the castle. The beauty of that scene was made even more memorable by the addition of a couple of people somewhere in the crowd bellowing "Ooooooooooooh," "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah," "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeh," "O-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-h" over and over again. Soon everyone joined in. My Mom, my sisters and I still do that every time we're together when we see fireworks.

Post by: elmore3003 on July 05, 2012, 04:12:51 AM: Good morning, all! It was a night of peculiar dreams, most of which I no longer remember. I remember one about sorting music on a shelf for a camera crew.

Today, I will head to Toyland, pack up half of the orchestra parts for DEAREST ENEMY and tote them off to the McGlinnventory mail room, where they will be shipped to Dublin. After that I will kill time until I head to the 2:00 matinee of ONE MAN TWO GUVNORS. I look forward to it.

DR George, I was asking about the Complete Show Boat laser disc set because it had fascinating extras. I can live with never seeng the 1951 SHOW BOAT ever again. The 1936 one is the great one.

Post by: Ben on July 05, 2012, 04:44:10 AM: I actually slept late (for me) this morning.

I got up around 6:30 and had some breakfast and now I'm on the patio with the laptop.

It was horribly hot yesterday. I was outside for part of it but I just couldn't take it anymore so I spent a chunk of the afternoon in the house with the AC.

I can tell it's going to be another hot day.

We are seeing a friend for lunch, which will be spent indoors and then whatever the rest of the day brings.

The 1929 version is quite wonderful, much more faithful to the novel.

Title: Re: THAT'S A HONEY OF AN ANKLET
Post by: Dan (the Man) on July 05, 2012, 06:00:26 AM: My alarm clock went off at the usual time yesterday morning and I was in the shower before I remembered it was the Fourth of July. But even so, I felt oddly energized and spent the early morning cleaning and organizing my back porch (it serves as a greenhouse and storage for yardwork tool and tends to become cluttered with whatnot during the winter and spring.) I then ventured out into the heat to run a few errands which turned out to be easier than I anticipated since every place was open for business (even my bank!) Though I was happy for the convienience, I feel bad for the people who had to work.

It also felt strang that it was the first Fourth of July in years where I did not go to someone's backyard picnic. It was just too hot and humid to be outdoors for me. Feh! on this weather, I say...

I have adored Audra MacDonald for years and I loved Diane Paulus' work on the HAIR revival, but I can't get over their borderline arrogance regarding PORGY & BESS. My anger is such that I can't yet bring myself to even listen to the recording, let alone purchase it.

Hopefully, we won't be hearing Paulus griping that Bob Fosse sexed up PIPPIN in the original production.

Title: Re: THAT'S A HONEY OF AN ANKLET
Post by: John G. on July 05, 2012, 06:25:24 AM: An interesting feature of the Criterion set of "Double Indemnity" was that it featured a made-for-TV remake with Samantha Eggers and Richard Crenna. It wasn't the original, by any means, but it also wasn't the worst remake ever, either. Eggers had the smoldering sexuality the part called for.

Post by: John G. on July 05, 2012, 08:16:48 AM: So, the word "beneficiary" is deemed a bit too legal for some I work with (at an insurance company). "Family" isn't necessarily those to whom a person leaves his money, however, so it's not quite right. Thesaurus.com recommends "crown prince/princess" as one synonym. Hmm. Don't think that's it, either.

DR George, I was asking about the Complete Show Boat laser disc set because it had fascinating extras. I can live with never seeng the 1951 SHOW BOAT ever again. The 1936 one is the great one.

The 1951 "Show Boat" is memorable for its amazing orchestrations, especially the underscore arrangements.

And then there is that hauntingly sad, beautiful shot of Ava Gardner at the end.

TOD: When I was 7, we went to visit family in Germany. On the Fourth of July, we were in Heidelberg where the Americans set off a huge fireworks show over the castle. The beauty of that scene was made even more memorable by the addition of a couple of people somewhere in the crowd bellowing "Ooooooooooooh," "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah," "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeh," "O-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-h" over and over again. Soon everyone joined in. My Mom, my sisters and I still do that every time we're together when we see fireworks.

There was an episode of "Laverne & Shirley" where they were watching fireworks and Lenny and Squiggy were saying "Ooooooooooooh," "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah," "Ooooooooooooh," "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah," just over and over again. It was very funny and I've been doing that ever since!

Today, I will head to Toyland, pack up half of the orchestra parts for DEAREST ENEMY and tote them off to the McGlinnventory mail room, where they will be shipped to Dublin. After that I will kill time until I head to the 2:00 matinee of ONE MAN TWO GUVNORS. I look forward to it.

DR George, I was asking about the Complete Show Boat laser disc set because it had fascinating extras. I can live with never seeng the 1951 SHOW BOAT ever again. The 1936 one is the great one.

Ahhh...maybe I should look for it.

I agree, though I'd like to see the 1929 version.

The 1929 version is quite wonderful, much more faithful to the novel.

It's strange...it's a part talkie/part silent, and there's a lot of actual silence...no music or underscoring for a goodly portion of it.

Post by: Ron Pulliam on July 05, 2012, 11:40:46 AM: I watched "The Artist" last night. I had pre-ordered it shortly after it won the Oscar for Best Picture/Actor/Director/Score, etc. When it arrived last week, I was not sure I was ready to see it.

Some movies get overhyped so much that watching them is like an event that cannot live up to that hype. I'm happy to report that this movie DID live up to its hype...primarily because it was so much more than what I'd read about it. The two leading performances are absolutely superb. Jean Dujardin and Berenice Bejon are beyond belief, IMO. They truly seem to be from the silent movie era. Loved it! Loved it! Loved it!

TOD: When I was 7, we went to visit family in Germany. On the Fourth of July, we were in Heidelberg where the Americans set off a huge fireworks show over the castle. The beauty of that scene was made even more memorable by the addition of a couple of people somewhere in the crowd bellowing "Ooooooooooooh," "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah," "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeh," "O-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-h" over and over again. Soon everyone joined in. My Mom, my sisters and I still do that every time we're together when we see fireworks.

There was an episode of "Laverne & Shirley" where they were watching fireworks and Lenny and Squiggy were saying "Ooooooooooooh," "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah," "Ooooooooooooh," "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah," just over and over again. It was very funny and I've been doing that ever since!

This was a bit used even earlier on The Beverly Hillbillies...and who knows where THEY got it!!!

Well January is the coldest month with temperatures around 40F. It's rare to get snow in London or even Norwich. Could be wet though.

The Cinema Theatre Association has thousands of items of press cuttings, programmes, photographs etc, mainly sent in by members, which needs cataloging and filing. There's a lot of fascinating material which goes back decades and much had been kept by a member who died and which was passed to the archive for sorting out. A working group is also involved in research to digitilize the collection. There are loads of filing cabinets containing files for every cinema in every town and city in Britain. Sorting it all is a daunting task.

Title: Re: THAT'S A HONEY OF AN ANKLET
Post by: elmore3003 on July 05, 2012, 02:48:14 PM: ONE MAN TWO GUVNORS is a slapstick delight with an amazing cast. Carlo Goldoni's mid-18th century commedia SERVANT OF TWO MASTERS has been turned into a farce set in 1963 Brighton with a neo-1960s rock and roll score played, primarily, by a wonderful 4-piece band along with occasional musical moments from the cast. It's absolutely brilliant and outrageously naughty and funny. Goldoni's plot and most of his business are kept and, once rolling, it gets crazier and crazier.

The Act One closer is a masterpiece of complete insanity: a meal for the two masters served by the leading man and two waiters, one of them an 87 year-old on a pacemaker, and an assist from a lady in the audience, gets loonier and loonier with the old waiter throttled, falling or thrown down stairs,knocked down and slammed by opening and closing doors till you think you can laugh no more. The staging and the comic timing are brilliant, as is the cast, stepping in and out of character to address the audience. Most of the songs act as interludes, having nothing to do with the plot, but the curtain call, with everyone singing and dancing various dances of the early 60's like the Pony, and I kept thinking, DR JRand61 would really love this.

As to our leading man who won the Tony for Best Actor: perfection.

A lot of youtube clips from the show in London and New York; this clip of excerpts is good:

The entire downtown area -- from the circle to the library -- was cordoned off for a major celebration/street fair/evening concert. People-watching was great, there were bands and the food vendors everywhere with great food offerings. The Indianpolis Symphony started playing at dusk. On tap for that event was the world premiere of John Williams' symphonic arrangement of music from "Star Wars". Quite unexpected and thrilling. We had the William Tell Overture for the fireworks display, naturally.

And if you see the stuff they post there - these silly one-liners that almost no one ever sees - much nicer here, I have to say. Remember, neither MySpace or Facebook existed when we began our journey. I was one of a handful of folks and the ONLY one who was doing it every single day, to put their life out there for all to see. I was, I think, a bit of a pioneer in that regard. Not every once in a while, but every single day for over ten years now.

We do need a few more folks. We've lost really only two or three key people, and others have just made Facebook their home, which is kind of nauseating but it becomes all about them there where we're all just a little group here. And if you see the stuff they post there - these silly one-liners that almost no one ever sees - much nicer here, I have to say. Remember, neither MySpace or Facebook existed when we began our journey. I was one of a handful of folks and the ONLY one who was doing it every single day, to put their life out there for all to see. I was, I think, a bit of a pioneer in that regard. Not every once in a while, but every single day for over ten years now.

Do people still use MySpace?

That leaves four more tracks. One More Kiss wasn't on the tape where it should have been, so we're hoping it was at the end somewhere - if it's not, that one we'll have to use from the CD, I guess, but we'll at least make it sparkle.
