Miscellaneous Movie Musings - Page 181

Last night, zapppop's gayification continued with his introduction to Victor/Victoria and Mommie Dearest.

I'd forgotten how funny the Faye Dunaway/Joan Crawford pic was. A veritable laugh riot. Heheh, after the movie we found a $9 DVD of the film that was apparently issued later than mine, as it had a running commentary by John Waters! That might have been worth the ten bucks for a movie I already own!

And Mary Poppins fans ... please leave the room.

Victor/Victoria is Julie Andrews' best film. Period.

What? Not S.O.B.?

Heather and I saw V/V on Broadway when it first opened. It was odd seeing a 60-year-old woman playing a 20-something singer, but somehow it worked. God bless Julie.

Tonight's Bill of Fare the restored Peter Pan. I'm excited, it arrived last night and looks good.

Heheheh, zapppop and I watched the live-action Peter Pan yesterday.

I saw the restored Disney version at the El Cap a few weeks ago, and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. It's a very comedic version of the story, really tight and concise. Alas, it's far from the best movie version -- though perhaps it is the funniest.

Has anyone seen 23?

wendybeth · 03-06-2007, 11:14 AM

I thought S.O.B. was good, but I love Victor/Victoria. I need to find a copy and watch it again- it's been years.

I love V/V. I was in the stage production in Honolulu. It was fun.

I love the movie. I don't think I've ever seen SOB.

Prudence · 03-06-2007, 11:32 AM

I have Victor/Victoria and have yet to watch it.

innerSpaceman · 03-06-2007, 12:26 PM

OMG, pop it in immediately! It's awesomely great.

SOB is meh.

And I decided against seeing Number 23 till it's on DVD.

Is SOB available? I don't particularly love it, but I did enjoy the Disney-esque opening number, the hysterical "adult" version of it later on, and, of course, the much publicized glimpse of Julie Andrews' rack.
