SWEET NOTHINGS
« on: July 02, 2007, 12:03:46 AM »

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were both sweet and nothing, and now it is time for you to post until the sweet cows come sweetly home.  They're currently whispering "moo" in each other's ears.

I noticed that there's another LA musical in NYMF this year - which I wrote about on this very site - Little Egypt.

I also noticed that there's a show called Roller Derby, which has major heavy-hitters behind it.  One is allowed to spend only so much on the shows at NYMF - well, no one is going to tell me that these folks aren't going to be bending THAT in a major way.  They're list of personnel is huge, with major set design, lighting design, sound design and orchestrations by its composer, Harold Wheeler, so one wonders at the size of their band.  Hmmm.

I like Man With The Golden Arm quite a bit.  I really loathe drugs of any kind, so it's not a favorite genre of mine.  I do enjoy some of the campfests like The Trip.

And Bigger Than Life, with James Mason, is a great film.

I remember people moving up close to the screen for the last section of 2001 as it was "trippy".

TV viewing:  "Six Feet Under" and "Queer As Folk" (UK) had some interesting scenes.

I don't remember enough about "Wild In The Streets" but I know there were LSD references.

Requiem for a Dream is really a great drug movie in my opinion, just because watching the main characters arm get cut off really disturbed me. It's annoying sometimes in it's " creative camera work" but I still think it is effective in getting it's point across.

I suppose sleep would be a good idea at this point.

Topic of the Day:  I can't think of any at this moment. :-\ I know I've seen some, and a couple that have already been mentioned.  It's not what I'm particularly interested, so I haven't paid much attention.

Definitely!  Tonight will be the first night in a week where I don't have to be at the theater!  But, my aunt is visiting for a couple of weeks, and she arrives today!  I guess I'm not going to have many nights at home for a while. :)

TOD:
Worst drug movie: THE BOOST with James Woods and Sean Young. It was so laughably bad that I wondered if they had been busted for drugs and this was how they satisfied some community service requirement.

Of course, there are a few people on imdb who like it!

Favorites:
THE TRIP
WILD IN THE STREETS
REEFER MADNESS and other teen scare films about drugs

DR Dakota---I probably play my music too loud in the car, too. I was talking about those people whose car stereos are so loud that you can FEEL the thumping of rap music/tejano music because of the gigantic speakers in the back of their cars.

I live at the confluence of 2 intersections in the city so there are two stop signs on either side of my house.  Sometimes cars park there for way too long and their music actually shakes my house! I don't understand how someone would purposefully want to destroy their hearing like that!

Nice photo of the watertower, DR Cillaliz! I wondered if those were two actual people in the picture or tromp l'oiel representations!
