I saw that CD sometime during the move last week, but I couldn't tell you where it is right now.

I think that's the one that has a beautiful hidden track. Craig Carnelia's "Just Where They Should Be."

It's one of my favorite shows and one I had always hoped to direct when I started that community theatre in Ohio, maybe?

King of Hearts
A Room With a View
Title: Re: PONDERING WHILST WONDERING
Post by: bk on May 20, 2025, 07:23:00 AM: Movies I've seen the most:

The Court Jester
Chinatown
Rosemary's Baby
North by Northwest
others.

But - movies I saw over and over again when they first came out - which means I either stayed at the theater (in the days when you could do that), or I just kept coming back to the same theater, or I'd follow the film to various other theaters from first run to the nabes - it might be a surprising list - it is to me:

The High and the Mighty
The Court Jester
North by Northwest
Li'l Abner
Fahrenheit 451 (three times in one day)
What's New, Pussycat
Modesty Blaise (the oddest movie - it really doesn't hold up but back then I found it very stylish and very amusing and I went to ever theater that played it)
That Man from Rio
The Umbrellas of Cherbourg
Sundays and Cybele
The Miracle Worker
David and Lisa

There are, of course, more, but the winner would have to be: West Side Story.
Title: Re: PONDERING WHILST WONDERING
Post by: Freddie on May 20, 2025, 07:31:18 AM: TOD: The movie that I saw over and over again when it first came out is BREAKING AWAY.

At one point not long ago, a customer service person on the phone needed me to answer one of my online security access questions, and said, well, if you get this one right I'll know it's you, I've never seen this answer in a security question as an all-time favorite movie before - it was BREAKING AWAY.
Title: Re: PONDERING WHILST WONDERING
Post by: Freddie on May 20, 2025, 07:33:26 AM: These days, when designers could technologically do a bicycle race onstage, with people so accepting of projections now - BREAKING AWAY might make a wonderful musical or stage piece, in the right hands.

Title: Re: PONDERING WHILST WONDERING
Post by: Rodzinski on May 20, 2025, 07:47:37 AM: Modesty Blaise is indeed stylish. And it doesn’t hold up, but it has something about it for sure.

Title: Re: PONDERING WHILST WONDERING
Post by: ChasSmith on May 20, 2025, 07:53:12 AM: I don't want to take it earlier, like now or this afternoon, because I don't want to be groggy for my 45-minute drive to the George Stevens event...and certainly not during it.
Title: Re: PONDERING WHILST WONDERING
Post by: Freddie on May 20, 2025, 07:53:51 AM: For some reason, I really liked a Dean Martin movie called THE SILENCERS when I was very very young, and went to it several times in its first run when I had time to kill.

I wondered, when seeing the movie again many years later, if maybe I had a Dean Martin "crush" back as a kid, or maybe just really liked him a lot from TV. I know I enjoyed his singing a great deal since my yute.

That would have been 1966, so I had to have been six years old. I'm astonished they let a 6 year old into the theater on my own for a Matt Helm movie; or maybe the movie was re-released at some later point.

Title: Re: PONDERING WHILST WONDERING
Post by: ChasSmith on May 20, 2025, 07:56:31 AM: It's very likely that my movie most seen, all things considered, is West Side Story, too. From BK's list, North by Northwest would be another. But Psycho is probably my #1 Hitchcock repeat over the years.
Title: Re: PONDERING WHILST WONDERING
Post by: ChasSmith on May 20, 2025, 07:59:00 AM: '2001' and The Exorcist would also be contenders. Maybe even Jaws, if only because I've accompanied so many people (who are much greater Jaws fanatics than I am) to special showings of it over the years.

Leave us not forget that I was at that concert, somewhere in the orchestra section, halfway back, right of center. Don’t know if I have the program. A bunch from that era went missing years ago, don’t ask me how.

The two solo concerts I remember there were the Heifetz and a Keith Jarrett one. I didn’t understand Jarrett’s music much at all. There’s a bootleg recording of the Heifetz concert, but I don’t have it. I wonder if it’s online.

I don't know Jarrett's music to comment.

We had good seats but I can't find my ticket to see where they were. I hope it isn't lost.
