Re: MUSINGS, PONDERINGS, RUMINATIONS AND FANCIES
Speaking of painful slogs, try getting through Woody Allen's ANOTHER WOMAN. Just try. I saw that one through ...twice. I thought it was very powerful and extremely well acted, but then again I liked a lot of Woody Allen's films, although the last section of his directorial period has been hit and m...

Re: TCM announces it is sunsetting the TCM Forums
Are theatregoers in London allowed to eat during theatrical performances?! Never been to London. I haven't been to live theatre stateside in years, so perhaps "theatre etiquette" has changed. But, I never attended a live theatrical performance in which the audience could eat snacks (or dr...

Re: What are you listening to?
I recently re-watched Close Encounters Of The Third Kind.
"The Square Song" is now stuck in my head!
But I'm okay with that . . .

Re: Melinda Dillon 1939-1983
As for the obituaries mentioning Christmas Story more than Close Encounters, its likely due to the former plastering the TV airwaves at the close of every year. Quite a few people remember her still from Close Encounters, but due to many watching it once a year, the holiday film is what they associ...
Re: Cabaret
Gwen Verdon , along with Ethel Merman and Mary Martin, was one of the First Ladies of the Musical Theater. In addition to Damn Yankees (in which she thankfully got to reprise her role on film), Verdon starred (as Sue Sue points out) in New Girl in Town (based on O'Neill's Anna Christie ); Redhead ;...

After the performance of "Maybe This Time" on The Dick Cavett Show , Liza talks about the shooting of Cabaret in Germany. She mentions that her wardrobe for the movie consisted mostly of her own clothes and Gwen Verdon's. This "fun fact" is also covered on the first episode of t...

Re: Cabaret
In the below clip from The Dick Cavett Show that aired the month that Cabaret was released, Liza Minnelli sings "Maybe This Time" to rousing applause from the studio audience. She tells Dick Cavett that the song was written for her by John Kander and Fred Ebb. However, according to Kaye Ba...
Re: Cabaret
. . . a wonderfully morbid example of precisely why Cabaret is in my movie collection * . The grim, sardonic tone of the story punctuated by the dark lyrics of Fred Ebb ("If you could see her through my eyes, She wouldn't look Jewish at all") and Joel Grey's sinister yet charismatic perfo...
Re: Cabaret
My favorite with Liza Minnelli is Arthur . Dudley Moore does what little singing is in the film. Liza is both hilarious and serious. My favorite Liza Minnelli line in Arthur is her response to the customer at the diner counter who asks if she recommends the French toast: "With all of my heart....
