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.

Yes, indeed. It is available on DVD. Maybe it's because I was 15 years old when I saw it, but made a heck of an impression on me. I always associate that movie with Serial, another skewering of SoCal culture which is sadly unavailable.

I've only ever seen three Julie Andrews performances:

The Sound of Music
10
Princess Diaries 2 (stupid airplanes)

So I'm still waiting to see whatever it is that makes people love her so.

innerSpaceman · 03-06-2007, 03:58 PM

Well ... um, try Victor/Victoria or Mary Poppins - her only two good movies.

Please don't tell me, Alex, as professionally Disney-oriented as you are, you've never seen Mary Poppins???!?!

Alex · 03-06-2007, 04:00 PM

I've admitted it many times (both on this board and the other). In fact, while subjected to practically perfect tea I've been mocked by it from an incarnation of Mary Poppins herself.

I own the DVD but the one time I put it in to watch I fell asleep within 15 minutes (I was exhausted when I put it in, I don't blame the movie).

ok, well then my advice stands. It won't necessarily make you a Julie Andrews fan ... but there's certainly no way to tell if you don't watch the only two good movies she's ever made.
