Good Morning!
Although it is Friday here in the US of A, it is my Monday. Yes, I am coming off of my weekend which was spent watching the following things on dvd:
SOUTH PACIFIC IN CONCERT - I love Reba. What can I say? I love the natural twang she brings to Nellie, even if it is Oklahoman not Arkansasian.
THE JOHN WAYNE - JOHN FORD COLLECTION's bonus features. BK, you must tell Mr. Redman how much I enjoyed his contribution to THE SEARCHERS. The PBS docu ain't too bad, either.
ZODIAC - from Netflix. A waste of time. Though David Hess is in it, looking old and haggard.
KUCH NAA KAHU - also from Netflix, but one that I will eventually own. It's a charming musical with catchy songs and lovely cinematography.
HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL - Kenny Ortega has come a long way since NEWSIES; Alyson Reed has come a long way since the film of A CHORUS LINE and Broadway's MARILYN.
Musically speaking, I've been listening to:
THE PETE SEEGER SESSIONS from Bruce Springsteen
THE DROWSY CHAPERONE - a bit twee, but fun.
SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE - 2006 London recording, at first off-putting because of the accents, but glorious when it gets going.
