I am currently taking a break from watching "Dunkirk".  I have long wanted to see it, but it is another Christopher Nolan event movie.

Thus far, I have seen an hour, and it is very intense, beautifully photographed and -- at times -- mesmerizing.

I haven't been mesmerized more than once or twice in the past month, so it's a good thing.

I was watching "True Detective: Night Country" episode four while doing my injections.

That wouldn't help your mood ;)

Wait, maybe the show fit your mood while having to do the injections.

California did indeed save some rain for us; we've had rain off and on all week. It's been nice.

TOD 1

Stars I saw:


Tommy Tune


I saw this and realized that I did not see Jason Alexander in Bye Bye Birdie.  I didn't recall seeing it but we must have seen the tv version with him.

Even better, we saw Tommy Tunes in the roles.  He was fantastic.

TOD:

Tom Bosley
Bea Arthur
Jane Connell

I worked with Tom Bosley in 1989 in Strike Up the Band; he was an unfriendly horror.
Bea Arthur played the Queen in my restration of Jubilee at Carnegie Hall in 1998; she was funny onstage, not friendly off.
Jane Connell was lovely; I did severa; shows with her.

I am now devastated for a second time today:

I have just finished watching Darren Aronofsky's production "The Whale". 

Incredible performance by Brendan Fraser.  Heartbreaking!

I thought I had misread the TOD, but it reads:

"Today’s topic of discussion: Who are your favorite classic male and female Broadway performers, from a time when such stars and unique personalities existed."

Are all these lists full of "favorite" performers?  I cannot say I've seen most of them except on TV appearances, game shows, that sort of thing.

Speaking of adorable dogs (as in some of the photos here on this site):

They're saying on another website that Toto does not appear in the current Broadway-bound tour of "The Wiz."
