May 2011 Screening Log
Sunday, May 1, 2011 at 11:49AM 01 Tonight we're going to The Intelligent Homosexual's Guide to Capitalism and Socialism with a Key to the Scriptures by Tony Kushner (Angels in America) off broadway. Two nights ago we were all wishing Kushner had just called it Intelligent Homosexuals just for the odd conversational fragments it would prompt
'what are you doing tonight?'
'Oh, we're going to see Intelligent Homosexuals!'
02-16 OOPSIE. FORGOT ABOUT THIS. AND DIDN'T NOTICE ANYONE READING THE SCREENING LOGS. Uh, I saw some things. Like... Thor, Pirates of the Caribbean: The One With The Mermaids, Bridesmaids and a few DVD offerings like Matador.
17 A couple of episodes of True Blood. I'm almost caught up for Season 4. Nobody on this show ever goes to the gym. They are constantly drinking beer and eating things like burgers and fries. The only exercize they get is sex. How do they stay so fit with zero body fat and rippling abs? Even the women have six packs.
Also saw ISHTAR at 92nd Street Y and Elaine May was interviewed afterwards. So funny. Both the woman and the movie; it's rep as a disaster is entirely unearned.
18-27 Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris, 1932's Tarzan the Ape Man, Norman Jewison's adaptation of the musical Jesus Christ Superstar (1973) and the Broadway production of The Normal Heart. (I liked the revival a few years ago starring Raul Esparza better.)
28 Norman Jewison's MOONSTRUCK (1987) which so should have won Best Picture at the Oscars. It holds up so so well, extremely funny and warm.
29-31 a nostalgia filled weekend with Adventures in Babysitting, The Rescuers and MOULIN ROUGE! And also The Other Woman. Blech. more on each soon.
Broadway and Stage, True Blood
