And when the visionary director's most piquant comment about his film is, I love it, it's sexy, well, I'm surprised I lasted an hour. And when he insists that one of his two male leading actors have a hairless body, well, I think we know the "vision" of this director.

And now, I'm watching a completely inept movie from 1972 that I never saw - the only reason it's still on is because it's all shot in LA and while I recognize all the locations, the inept director shoots them in such a way that you never actually see them, other than Dodger Stadium and a shot of the the apartment building in which I lived at the beach, the Shores. A nice establishing shot here and there is always nice.

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.

TOD: I like the nonlinear storytelling in Pulp Fiction a lot. It sounds like Strange Darling followed a similar model.

I haven't seen those, but Reservoir Dogs was also non-linear.  I liked that movie, and I loved the stage adaptation of it that my theater group did.

Yesterday I learned that our concert this Sunday afternoon will be livestreamed. And apparently the livestream usually stays up for weeks.

Cool!

You're welcome, DR Freddie! The Hanson Symphony has been a bucket list item for me ever since I started singing. Our first orchestra dress is tonight.

Hope it went well tonight!

Wicked part 1 is 160 minutes long. Some good reviews, some bad. Certainly a better response than the Broadway version got.

Interesting!  The whole stage show is less than three hours (180 minutes), I'm sure.

And I think I read that there is only one new song, and it'll be in the second movie...unless I'm misremembering. :-\
