Have I missed any reviews here from our members about WEST SIDE STORY?

Back from seeing West Side Story - no Amoeba, too crowded to even drive over there.

One year, I'll make it to the Sydney Opera House. Until then, there is this spritely version of Handel's Messiah filmed there.

Nice.  On Tuesday, I'm ushering for a local annual singalong of The Messiah.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

There's a countertenor instead of an alto.

Twenty years ago, or so, Rob and I took Richard’s mother to a Messiah performance where they did that and she DID NOT APPROVE.  When it was over, she wouldn’t even clap.  I was so embarrassed by her behavior I drove her home in silence.

The next day she was ranting to her musician eldest son.  He told her there was probably some historic validity to that choice, but she still wasn’t convinced.

Have I mentioned my mother-in-law was a force of nature?

Ha! They had a countertenor one year with the San Antonio Symphony. A small boy kept saying to his mother in a loud whisper, "Mommy, that man sounds like a girl."

Starting to watch a documentary called Bergman: A Year in a Life. It's about 1957, the year in which he made both The Seventh Seal and Wild Strawberries. For some reason, one of the talking heads is Barbra Streisand. Elliott Gould is also interviewed. He makes sense. He at least made The Touch with Bergman.

Ours was canceled here because the symphony is still on strike.

A jealous man dating a secret spy is not a perfect match.

Great line from Bergman.
