Speaking of...


Yesterday I mentioned in my blog one of the amazing dance sequences in the film version of Sweet Charity. The movie flopped when it was released, which is surprising because it is one of the best transfers of a stage musical to the screen. Shirley MacLaine (one of my fave actresses anyway --- I mean The Apartment??? --- she steals my breath) is so vulnerable and real it hurts. I find most musical theater people have never seen it. If you haven't do yourselves a favor.
