In Paris, 1958, the Jean-Louis Barrault-Madeleine Renaud Company presented its first musical, Offenbach's La Vie Parisienne, which was written in 1866 for a Parisian company of comedians. The Barrault-Renaud revival was a huge success; in 1964 thje company brought the production to New York to run with, I believe, two other plays. In 1967, the musical was broadcast on French television with some cast changes. Barrault was no longer playing the wealthy Brazilian tourist, Renaud was no longer playing the Baroness, and Suzy Delair was replaced by Micheline Dax as Metella, the whore with a heart of gold. Unlike the other DVDs of La Vie Parisienne that I've seen, this broadcast is funny, broadly acted, and quite wonderful. Pierre Bertin, who has to be in his early 60s, makes a wonderful Baron de Gondremark.

Last night I let the Olympics play in the background while puttering around, and I didn't go to bed till after 11pm. Then I turned on TCM which was showing Carousel, which I stared at for a short time before finally falling to sleep.

I don't know how many years it's been since I sat down and watched the movie, but they were on their way to the clambake and everything just looked silly and I could readily understand from what little I saw how people today could have no interest in it. I remember being thrilled by it, but if truth be told, that impression probably goes back to my high school years when I first got to know it on a re-release.

I think one of my silly dreams was based on that clambake scene.

When I saw Carousel in its first release around 1956, I loved it. When Billy died, I wept so loudly that my brother Macbeth kept hitting me and telling me to shit up; I was embarrassing him. We were around 10 and 8 at the time. Since then, I saw a poor college performance, the wonderful 1966 Lincoln Center revival with John Raitt, Jerry Orbach, and Susan Watson, and I now find the film very poor, too cutesy-poo and coy, with performances running from very good  to very poor. I find Barbara Ruick's performance especially offensive.

Similar history here. I didn't see the movie till an early-mid-1960s re-release, then a high school performance which I'm sure was awful but I remember nothing of it, then the Lincoln Center revival on tour at the Coconut Grove Playhouse in Miami (I believe I have Raitt's and maybe another autograph or two from it). I probably had a horrible VHS release, then a laserdisc, then the DVD release that included Liliom - which I should still have. I never bought the Blu-ray. The last time I really watched it was probably on the laserdisc in the 1990s. Oy!

Watching a shaggy dog of a film called A Man, a Woman and a Bank with Donald Sutherland, Brooke Adams and Paul Mazursky. I never saw it when it was first released. Don’t understand why it now has an HD print with film historians offering commentary. An hour into it, it’s sweet and light, but some of the supporting actors are really bad.

So I got the stuff to make the vegetarian enchiladas (it's a fairly simple process), and I brought it all back to my sister.

But I forgot that I wanted to get a few things for myself, so I had to go back to Fred Meyer.

Post by: George on August 07, 2024, 12:35:16 AM
Which I did.

I came home and dilly-dallied for a while, then I realized that I STILL needed something else from Fred Meyer, and went back a THIRD time today!

Notes took a while and they include a mystery track that needs to be identified pronto.

Hey, someone put the first paragraph of the notes into one of those AI things and let's see how they imitate the style.

I'd do it but I'm a well known luddite.
Title: Re: A FUN PART ONE OF OUR FIRST REHEARSAL
Post by: bk on August 07, 2024, 12:45:01 AM

I'm hoping someone can ID the tune.
Title: Re: A FUN PART ONE OF OUR FIRST REHEARSAL

I like to recognize the tune.
Title: Re: A FUN PART ONE OF OUR FIRST REHEARSAL

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.
Title: Re: A FUN PART ONE OF OUR FIRST REHEARSAL
Post by: bk on August 07, 2024, 12:47:36 AM
Conversely, sometimes I don't and sometimes I do.

I am posting here to document that I have time traveled.

I wish I could have gone a little farther back, like, say, 45 years? Maybe 50? Damn it to HELL.
