"but it would be nice if someone knew we were there... three jews and three gentiles, in the midst of all that horror and despite all of our squabbles we found harmony! and what i wouldn't give for one more moment of that!"

While I was cleaning today, I ended up listening to the 2006 Rebecca cast album for the very first time (I'd only listened to some of the songs previously). Here are some random thoughts and reactions that came up, because why not. This will probably be a long post so buckle up:
the characters feel very vivid and I love that a lot.
it's interesting to hear some of the lines they changed for the Monte Carlo scenes.
I actually love the second verse of "Zeit in einer Flasche". I wish they'd kept it. It's very sweet and creates a more satisfying lead-up to the conclusion of the song imo.
this recording is proof that "Zauberhaft natürlich" doesn't add anything to the show. Uwe Kröger already makes Maxim seem quite human in only a few minutes. Plus, I always feel like the Monte scenes could be shorter overall (Yes I know what I just said about "Zeit in einer Flasche".)
If I hadn't already been completely won over by Susan!Danny I would be now. She's so poised and brings so much nuance to the character in "Die Neue Mrs de Winter" alone. Her first "Madam" sounds so threatening, I love it.
Also... 2005 Elisabeth Franz Joseph as Frank startled me a little.
Absolutely adore Susan's "Sie ergibt sich nicht"
Kerstin Ibald as Beatrice is a delight in every single way. Also interesting to see the different choices she made between Vienna and Stuttgart.
Speaking of Beatrice... "Die Stärke einer Frau" is... so long. I listened to it on the way home from running an errand and I ended up laughing to myself in the middle of the street because it is kind of a ridiculous song. Imo the only reason not to cut it is because we love Beatrice.
Here's something I found really interesting: Favell and Danny actually have a dynamic in this recording. I fully believe that they've known each other for decades. They might not particularly like each other, but they're definitely familiar with each other. I can imagine them as a comedic duo honestly. This Favell in general is very vivid, very emotional. I like that. I feel like he has more nuance than the later depictions. Also... "Ich liebte sie genau wie du". Excuse me??? I love that line!
I'm so glad they ended up replacing "Wir sind Britisch" with "Merkwürdig". "Wir sind Britisch" did not work for me as a song and felt out of character for the show in general. It was like they were trying to be My Fair Lady for a hot second.
I didn't think I would like Uwe!Maxim that much, but actually! I might like him the best out of the three cast recordings. Jan Amman is my fave vocally, but I love how Uwe portrays Maxim as a character. Again, there's nuance here. I also love the way he says "Oh, das ist Frank Crawley der Verwalter von Manderley..."
There's a really interesting line in "Die Neue Mrs de Winter (Reprise)" where the ensemble says something about Ich being "Fast wie unsere alte Mrs de Winter". That's a really interesting callback to the book and the way the book's narration begins to draw parallels between Ich and Rebecca, in whichever way you want to interpret that.
Okay, everyone who's been telling me about how excellent Susan!Danny is was completely correct and justified. Her Mrs Danvers comes across as very controlled, but her feelings really come through as well. Her "ich Hör Dich Singen" is beautiful. I would give a lot to hear her sing it again with the new lyrics. I know I keep saying this but NUANCE. So much nuance in this character!
On a similar note, it's so refreshing to hear a Maxim played by a very passionate actor (not to say that Mark or Jan weren't passionate, just that I really enjoyed Uwe's portrayal).
This became long and quite incoherent, so if you've made it this far, thanks for reading! I'd love to hear your thoughts if anyone wants to ramble :)

There is a great excitement in the alley of the ghetto today
Because Róża Kranz, the one who sells hot broad beans
She got a message from her son in America
So it spread around the ghetto accidentally
What Icek wrote
Everyone is happy, giving advice and congratulating her
They bring challahs and kiss Róża
And she sits as if she were a queen
Silent tears flow on the words of the letter
And the trembling lips in the mute joy
They read the words full of love
Mein Yiddishe Mame, I feel so bad without you here
Mein Yiddishe Mame, I want to come back to you quickly
A year or two will pass before you see me
Pray for my prosperity and health
I finish the letter and kiss you
Mame, Mame Mein.
A lot of time has passed, not a year, not two
Until the day of joy came again for Róża Kranz
She is his mother, she has such a son
How both Sara and Bertha Glanz envy her
Everyone gathered again and debated for a long time
Everyone had some advice
Only she sits calmly, looking with dignity
At the letter that trembled in her hand.
Mein Yiddishe Mame, I'll come back to you in six days
Mein Yiddishe Mame, I dream of our house at night...
I have money, I'll buy a shop, the one on the corner there
So I'm coming, stay healthy, I'll tell you the rest myself
My ship is called Lincoln
Mame, Mame Mein
And the happy day came when her son would return
At dawn she went outside, sobbing quietly with joy
The noise of the streets and the voices of newsboys have already rised
They break into every crack, proclaiming fate of the world
Great ship disaster!!! Lincoln sank!!!
Terrible thing
Great ship disaster!!! Buy it, lady
Go away!
She ran, she ran to Berta Glanz right away, she asked if it can be true
That her son... that Icek Kranz drowned, drowned...
G-d...
Mein Yiddische Mame, no, it's not true, she knows
Mein Yiddische Mame, her son did not part with her like this
He'll come today, maybe he's already waiting for her there
She must run, run quickly, so that he is not alone
Her Icełe, who wrote:
Mame...
Mame Mein
You can always meet her at the station
Where she greets every arriving train
How she runs after it, wild and careless
When you see her questioning look
Don't ever say that Icełe died
She doesn't have much time left anyway
Because no one knows where she lives or what she eats
You can meet her at the station where she's lamenting that her son is late
Or she's repeating his letter's words all day long
Mein Yiddishe Mame, I'll come back to you in six days
Mein Yiddishe Mame, I dream of our house at night...
I have money, I'll buy a shop, the one on the corner there
So I'm coming, stay healthy, I'll tell you the rest myself
My ship is called Lincoln
Mame Mein...

Recently I’ve been watching a little of Static Shock and the one thing that never changes is how I ALWAYS cry about the storyline regarding Virgil’s grief over the loss of his mother. IT ALWAYS, ALWAYS MAKES ME CRY!!!! I’m just glad in the end, he was able to see her one last time and finally gain closure at last.

one of the things about being an educator is that you hear what parents want their kids to be able to do a lot. they want their kid to be an astronaut or a ballerina or a politician. they want them to get off that damn phone. be better about socializing. stop spending so much time indoors. learn to control their own temper. to just "fucking listen", which means to be obedient.
one of the things i learned in my pedagogy classes is that it's almost always easier to roleplay how you want someone to act. it's almost always easier to explain why a rule exists, rather than simply setting the rule and demanding adherence.
i want my kids to be kind. i want them to ask me what book they should read next, and i want to read that book with them so we can discuss it. i want my kid to be able to tell me hey that hurt my feelings without worrying i'll punish them. i want my kid to be proud of small things and come running up to me to tell me about them. i want them to say "nah, i get why this rule exists, but i get to hate it" and know that i don't need them to be grateful-for-the-roof-overhead while washing the dishes. i want them to teach me things. i want them to say - this isn't safe. i'm calling my mom and getting out of this. i want them to hear me apologize when i do fuck up; and i want them to want to come home.
the other day a parent was telling me she didn't understand why her kid "just got so angry." this woman had flown off the handle at me.
my dad - traditional catholic that he is - resents my sentiment of "gentle parenting". he says they'll grow up spoiled, horrible, pretentious. granola, he spits.
i am going to be kind to them. i am going to set the example, i think. and whatever they choose become in the meantime - i'm going to love them for it.

So I know Lisa Frankenstein is about more than the romance, there’s so much to be said about Lisa’s relationships with those around her and how she was treated and how that parallels how wider society treats women, young women in particular. But the fact that the Creature loved her completely, to the point of searching for her when he “came back to life”, killing those who harmed her, using the body parts of those same people to please her, and always listening to her even though he couldn’t speak (even when it hurt him) just hits me in all the right places. The people who were supposed to love and cherish her didn’t (Taffy loved her of course) yet he did. Idk guys, seeing a girl being loved for all that she is after almost everyone else has rejected her for no reason other than she’s different just means so much to me
