I don't know why, but I have always hated the musical, THE PIRATE. I love Judy Garland and I love Gene Kelly; but the movie is just stupid to me.
Different tastes is all. Am watching the Gene Kelly "Three Musketeers" right now and am not liking it too much, despite the presence of Gene Kelly, Lana Turner, Angela Lansbury, et al. The sword fighting scenes are telegraphed a bit too much. Everything's a little too broad and forced. maybe if I were 8 again.

I love "The Pirate," a funny movie with one of the worst Cole porter scores ever written. The best Musketeers movie is the 2-part Richard Lester version, which is the most faithful to the novel, one of my favorite books. I believe there's a new film adaptation in the works.

I don't think I've seen any pirate movies except Peter Pan.

We have a pirate in the family, though. Actually, a pirate hostage who killed the pirates in a mutiny.

You are related to Julius Caesar?

I have an Amazon vendor that's got me all bent out of shape: I ordered a long out of print autobiography by the man who wrote the libretto for Victor Herbert's first operetta in 1894 from this jerk. He had a good feedback rating of 98% so I went with him. The reason it's only 98%? Because his really good rating has gone to hell in the past four months! Something must have happened to him because every buyer hayes him. I can't get a response from the ass after three inquiries. and I want that damned book.

VIBES to Elmore for book receiving

There aren't many songs in the movie, but I do enjoy most of them, "Mack the Black," "Nina," "Love of My Life" and "Be a Clown."

Personally I liked watching her expressions & listening to you laugh. What she was doing didn't need any commentary.

Jane · « **Reply #169 on:** March 28, 2011, 07:20:37 PM »

Really, does anyone want to duplicate a Floop smoothie!

Laura · « **Reply #170 on:** March 28, 2011, 07:26:51 PM »

She wanted to do it in one take -- so you'd get the chance to see her expression the first time she tried it.

I guess when one doesn't have a television, one finds other means of entertainment.

I think "Jaws," "Poseidon Adventure," "The Perfect Storm," and "Titanic" would all have been better films if they had pirates in them.
