I had a nice swim today. With all this hot weather I am sorry I haven't been able to go more often.

I am home from City Center and happy to be back in the AC.

I'm up, I'm up - and was up for most of the night and morning with tummy problems - not really nauseous, though, just feeling a little queasy, enough to keep me up. I'm not sure I got more than three or four hours of sleep.

TOD

I liked his music for Umbrellas of Cherbourg, Amour and Marguerite, even if the latter two had book/lyric problems.

Ditto! And ditto.

I loved the new lyrics in the notes, BK!

"We Have Always Lived in the Castle" was a bit of a downer but at least it was short.

It’s on my short list.

What drugs was Ben Brantley dropping when he wrote that rave review of Moulin Rouge?

John G. · « **Reply #70 on:** August 06, 2018, 01:25:06 PM »

That movie was butt ugly and the stage version sounds worse despite a great cast.

"We Have Always Lived in the Castle, rehearsal trailer from the musical" - I saw this musical at Yale Rep quite a few years ago. I liked the material a lot, but I think the Times was lukewarm, so it didn't transfer to NY.

Hurry up and read it. The movie is coming out soon though that is not the reason I read it.

It looks interesting. Maybe if the movie is a hit the musical will return.

Picked up a couple of packages, went to Gelson's and got stuff to make tuna sandwiches, came home, made them, ate them, and put out an ask for a gal performer and am waiting for a response, and am now listening to music - tonight I'll watch a motion picture.

George · « **Reply #75 on:** August 06, 2018, 05:39:06 PM »

Well, I must be off. I'm going to the Legally Blonde production meeting. Hopefully, I haven't forgotten something that they'll need to know...or I've not done something that I should've. I'll find out soon enough!

Be back later!

I'd forgotten about the musical. Now I do remember, the Times was not nice.

Not every musical can be Moulin Rouge.

Right now, I'm watching something called Head. It stars The Monkees and features a script co-written by Jack Nicholson. Written and directed by Bob Rafelson. I'm surprised because it's pretty good. And a very young Terry Garr is funny in a short scene.

The new boss is beginning make her presence felt. And it's curious to see what's going to happen next. I think she's going to take my work wife and put her on a project. So, I might have to do her job and mine for awhile.

FJL · « **Reply #80 on:** August 06, 2018, 06:49:27 PM »

JohnG - I recall that part of the excitement of the show's second act was one surprising (but still logical storywise) development, then another, then another. I gathered from the Times review then that the reviewer was familiar with the book, so didn't feel the turns, really knew they were coming.

FJL · « **Reply #81 on:** August 06, 2018, 06:55:15 PM »

Here's the Times review. He does seem quite familiar with the novel. (but that's likely expected when a critic reviews a adaptation)

Hmmm, I think I might like to see this. Chances are I did way back then.

Sorry about that. I hope overall, as time progresses, you are pleased with your new boss.

I'm pleased with her. Don't get me wrong. But, well, I'm a Lutheran. And we don't like change.

Just got off the phone with my sister. Her husband had a TIA over the weekend. He's getting better. Still, it's scary.
