Saw Saltburn and it was amazing, everyone should go see it

-- loved the parents way more than I thought I would? they were so funny and charming

-- the music was great even though it was (purposefully?) anachronistic

-- the HOUSE the LABYRINTH so BEAUTIFUL D:

-- Jacob rolling around in a field with golden light and a tragic voiceover? Lana del Rey vibes

-- Jacob in angel wings framed in the light?? nice to know no one else got over Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet either

-- literally there were parts of the movie where Pamela or the mom was talking and I couldn't hear the next line because everyone was laughing so hard

-- shoutout to the dude in my row who laughed HARD when Oliver said he hadn't sucked off any of his teachers

-- MVP was definitely Archie, I absolutely loved Farleigh (and he sings!!) as both a haughty bitch, a pigtail pulling bitch, and a very sad bitch

-- all of Farleigh's clothes were amazing. he was the most stylish guy in 2006. most of Felix's clothes were tragic. he was the most accurate guy from 2006 xD

-- can anyone get their hookup on in this movie without a third party peering through a window? very Downton Abby of them. well, except for that one "hookup" where someone interrupting would have been good

-- Oliver gets mad props for never being able to handle any level of conflict at a party cause his sense of retribution was off the charts

I would love to just vomit spoilers everywhere but I'm trying to be good xD

11/10

hi um. as an opera enjoyer do you have any thoughts on gounod's romeo & juliette?

just dug through my absolutely unusable inbox (sorry I did that ask meme and never replied I got really busy :/) to find this again because I just saw it last night and I have a couple of points ie an essay. first off the libretto is fucking deranged you have the entirety of one of the greatest achievements of the English language at your disposal

and do this instead

which proves again that the only way to adapt Shakespeare is ballet/physicality/mime because it's the only way of not using his poetry that you can convey his poetry

adjacent is that obv above they're in their 20s-30s but with dance the acting comes across better bc it's the entire body whereas opera they've gotta stand fairly still and so you're very aware you're watching two 35 year olds do this same scene as 14/15 year olds only singing and singing bad verse besides.

point b leads into point b.5(?) which is I straight up don't like tenors. I've come to accept this about myself. I straight up dislike a tenor. grow up. why are you as a man a tenor. men should either be countertenors (I kno we all saw it six years ago and daily since but let's revisit) or baritone or bass. stop yelling. STOP IT!!!! STOP YELLING!!!!! oh MY god. as you can imagine this makes my life very difficult. not Gounod's fault. I understand that Romeo obviously cannot be a baritone.

b.5: in every French opera you inevitably have the one frenchman in the cast who instead of rolling the r's has decided to swallow them instead which just annoys me. thats the entire point I just dont like it I like French opera fine love it even but oh my godddddd stop it. stop it. get some help.

point d: all of that being said the music alone is absolutely. just absolutely. just absolutely absolutely. beyond beautiful. and obviously we're all there at least in part for the spectacle of it. I spent 43 usd to see her do this

and obviously that was the bargain of a lifetime and regardless of all of the above I'd go again if I had another 43 bucks to spend. Ive seen her as Violetta as well several years ago and I will say that her Violetta is what took me from a casual opera fan to my current state and I did SPECIFICALLY go see this for her. the chokehold this woman has on an audience is unreal and this + je veux vivre are just really stunning pieces of Gounod's so what can you do.

in conclusion to enjoy this opera you must pretend it is not Romeo and Juliet because it is not Romeo and Juliet. not to be dramatic but it's a garish pastiche that offends me on a base level and if I'd seen it in 1860 whatever when it came out I'd be saying that loudly and complaining for the ENTIRE carriage ride home. but it's 2024 and I can turn on the baz Luhrmann Romeo and Juliet so it's all good. it's sonically really lovely and a great showcase for any soprano

Baz Luhrmann giggling and assisting Travis Kelce in hyping up the crowd. Joebless found dead in a ditch for sure.

He needs to really d%%.

[eon-become-instant]

I might be slightly insane (wrong) here but when Alex goes back to London after the leak and he and Henry meet and embrace on the staircase... is the first tune Henry is playing on piano the love theme from Baz Luhrmann's film 'Australia'?! Like is it supposed to be some kind of deep reference/callback to them having met in Melbourne in the movie (instead of Rio like in the book)?

Because if this is the case... it's yet another thing about this movie that makes me want to sob :'D

Edit: YUP it's the track "First Kiss" from the Australia movie score and it's the part that starts at around 2m35s.

#red white and royal blue #rwrb #rwrb movie #firstprince #i sat here trying to figure out where the hell i knew that tune from #and i SWEAR it's that theme #if its some other well known piece of music and im actually just insane feel free to let me know #im talking about the first piece he's playing #i know it morphs into one or two other pieces after

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Anastacia, recording artist/singer-songwriter Ben Anderson (great to have worked with you), Rita Arya, Bill Black, Kyle Chandler, Dolores Costello, Elvira a.k.a. Cassandra Peterson (good to have met you), Will Gregory (Goldfrapp), Charles Tomlinson Griffes, Ken Kesey, Mark Kleiner, Baz Luhrmann, Roddy McDowall, Brother Jack McDuff, Lamonte McLemore (5th Dimension), Reinhold Messner, the 2010 documentary WHO IS HARRY NILSSON & WHY IS EVERYBODY TALKING ABOUT HIM?, Robert B. Parker, Joseph D. Pistone, John Ritter, Rita Rudner, The Supremes 1964 “Baby Love” single, Ty Tabor (King’s X), Michiyo Tsujimura 辻村みちよ, Fee Waybill (The Tubes—keep up the good work), and one of America’s best-known cultural ambassadors, Luke the Drifter a.k.a. The Hillbilly Shakespeare a.k.a. Mr. Lovesick Blues a.k.a. Timber Snake, singer-songwriter Hank Williams. He learned guitar from African-American blues musician Rufus Payne (a.k.a. Tee Tot), and that, along with the music of Roy Acuff and Ernest Tubb, influenced Hank’s style. Chronic back pain, alcoholism, and pill addiction took a toll on Hank’s heart and he died young and tragically, but in his short but hugely influential career he released 55 Top 10 singles with 12 #1 records. He’s cited as one of the essential pioneers of contemporary country music, but his reach extended into mainstream pop, rock’n’roll, and even jazz, as his songs (now considered to be American standards) were covered by hit-makers of the day and still are. 

A 78 of Hank’s “Lovesick Blues” turned up in my house when I was kid, and I remember enjoying it. In recent years I started performing regularly in assisted living homes, and my set includes Hank’s “Hey Good Lookin’” (along with “Jambalaya”). He wrote and recorded "Hey, Good Lookin'" in 1951(it was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2001). The song has been covered by countless artists and was a precursor to the genre known as Rockabilly. Hank was friendly with musician Jimmy Dickens. Having told Dickens that Dickens needed a hit record if he was going to become a star, Williams said he'd write it, and penned "Hey Good Lookin'" in only 20 minutes while on a plane with Dickens and entertainer Minnie Pearl. A week later Williams recorded it himself, jokingly telling Dickens, "That song's too good for you!" Here’s my cover of it (recorded by Chris von Sneidern). Meanwhile, HB HW and thank you for crafting so many great songs. https://johnnyjblairsingeratlarge.bandcamp.com/track/hey-good-lookin

Moonage Daydream. 

D: Brett Morgan (2022). 

You won’t learn much about David Bowie’s life in Moonage Daydream (Parents were stiff, adored older brother went mad, fame isolated him, found true love before the end) and you won’t get any talking head analysis about what his art meant. Brett Morgan’s documentary eschews godlike narration (though adroit editing of interview tracks form the illusion that Bowie is telling his own story) in favor of immersion, taking us into a kaleidoscopic, sometimes dizzying vision of a chameleonic artist whose mastery of artifice, image, persona (he describes himself as a “human canvas”) and ironic detachment (he became a rock star by playing one) turned him into perhaps the first post-modern rock star.

He was also an aesthetic dilettante whose restlessness kept him from true greatness, a fault the film shares. Morgan’s hyperactive style – he’s like the Baz Luhrmann of documentarians – means to posit Bowie as the ultimate late twentieth-century artist (with too many everything-but-the-kitchen-sink montages of Bowie’s influences) but unintentionally exposes the fecklessness of his vision. Ironically this approach makes Bowie a more interesting film subject, a tourist of ideas, making his way through one avant-garde movement after another bringing it into the pop zeitgeist, before moving on to the next thing. And when both artist and film do touch greatness -- as in a stirring version of “Heroes” before a Berlin audience that could move you to tears – the journey is more than worthwhile.

4, 8, and 23! :)

Movie of the year?

if we're talking pure entertainment value it's gotta be top gun maverick (for my sins.) otherwise maybe elvis? i go absolutely insane for anything baz luhrmann does tbh, the unrestrained extravagance of it all really tickles my giblets

Game of the year?

this was a pretty slow year games-wise for me but i've played an a b s u r d amount of crusader kings iii. staying a measly insignificant count whilst blackmailing and murdering all the great powers of europe to seat my children on their thrones is oodles of fun

If you could send a message to yourself back on the first day of the year, what would it be?

good god girl, get out more
