Miscellaneous Movie Musings - Page 272

Hmmm, I have that movie sitting in my living room ... but I hate the ubiquitous billboard soooo much, I'm doubting I will actually watch it.

* * * * * *

Took zapppop to see Scrooge at the Aero yesterday - - a wonderful 70's Brit musical adaptation of A Christmas Carol, with Albert Finney as Ebenezer Scrooge and Alec Guinness as Jacob Marley. I don't know that I'd ever seen it in a theater on a big screen, and it was marvelous. What a treat - as it's one of my top 3 absolute fave Xmas movies. zapppop liked it, and finally gets the reference to The Minister's Cat, a Christmas parlor game I like to play.

Hahahah, having just seen Sweeny Todd less than 24 hours prior, I can hardly conceive of two more radically different musical versions of 19th Century London I could experience in one day!!

I'm currently re-obsessing with Glam (my first rock music love). Thank you Todd Haynes.

Depending on how long this lasts, it could make for an interesting NYE....

Quick! Where can I get some platforms?

Not Afraid · 12-23-2007, 01:15 PM

With your balance skills platforms are risky ;-)

I loooove Velvet Goldmine.

And we're trying to get to Walk Hard before we fly out tonight.

We watched the 3rd Pirates film on Xmas Eve. What a bloody mess of a story that was! At least I was not bored, but don't ask me for a synopsis.
