Will Glenn Close get her Oscar for Sunset?  Feb 28 2019, 06:47:31 PM
This will be an absolute dumpster fire.

Will Glenn Close get her Oscar for Sunset?  Feb 27 2019, 01:22:52 PM

If anyone could make that happen, Reese would be the one. She has become quit the heavy hitter in the industry over the last few years. But she was just responding in kind to their 6th and 7th Oscar losses, respectively. 



Will Glenn Close get her Oscar for Sunset?  Feb 27 2019, 12:23:04 PM

Two words that are apropos to this case:

Streisand, Gypsy. 



Will Glenn Close get her Oscar for Sunset?  Feb 26 2019, 11:21:41 AM

Olivia rightfully won. 

Glenn won't be receiving a competitive Oscar in this lifetime. The Wife was her last chance at an actual win. Now let's get the talented woman an Honorary Oscar for her entire body of work.

And BLVD is not opening. 



GYPSY Film Happening  Feb 7 2019, 01:18:33 PM

People age out of roles, regardless of their gender identity. It happens. You move on.

Mike Nichols tried to get a Gypsy adaptation off the ground back in the early millennium, after Angels in America. Oddly enough, he was pitching it with Meryl in mind. That floundered, of course. I cannot remember if it was prior to the Nichols/Streep project or after, but Catherine Zeta-Jones was considered by some production team after winning her Oscar for Chicago. Arthur Laurents quickly vetoed t


GYPSY Film Happening  Feb 7 2019, 09:48:21 AM

This will only happen if a greenlight is given from a streaming service. 

Meryl and (Punch & Judy) Close are a little too...seasoned for a film adaptation. 



Wow... A STAR IS BORN snub?!  Jan 9 2019, 09:13:03 AM

The HFPA has always been a mess. They usually try to predict what will win the Oscar, but this year, I really doubt that happens. Bohemian Rhapsody was atrocious, not to mention it was directed by a pedophile. 

A Star is Born and Roma are the two films that have hit all of the precursors, and most importantly, the guilds, eg: SAG, PGA, DGA, and BAFTA to boot. Best Picture is between those two. And with the year that Bradley Cooper had, I cannot see him going home empty handed. Bes


If you could go back to one performance...  Jan 6 2019, 02:27:27 PM
Lansbury in Gypsy or Richardson in Cabaret are the two performances I would give anything to go back in time to experience.

What is the best Stage Performance You Have Ever Seen?  Nov 5 2018, 09:01:08 PM

Billie Piper, YERMA

This entire production was a godsend, but Piper’s performance absolutely gutted me. And those final moments? I left Park Avenue Armory shaking.



TORCH SONG (2018) Previews  Oct 13 2018, 05:58:28 PM
I don’t mean to be the contrarian, but:

I was underwhelmed. Urie was too clown-like for me. Supporting cast was...uneven. The third part, also known as Act II in this production, is the only noteworthy portion of the show. Ruehl is tremendous. Urie has moments of greatness with her, but quickly resorts back to being a goof ball. A little too much Barney Fife and not enough pathos.

I was prepared to be wowed, so perhaps I set myself up for disappointment.


Funny Girl Broadway Revival? Lady gaga?  Oct 7 2018, 07:02:29 PM

EmeraldOzian said: "If Gaga is going to campaign,get nominated and possibly win Best Supporting actress then I would see her next move as pursuing a film career in possibly a non-singing role. Barbara's version of Gypsy will probably become greenlit if both agree to it especially with them both being in the public eye with Star is Born."

1. Gaga is not supporting.

2. Gypsy ain’t happenin’.



A Star Is Born review. WOW!  Oct 4 2018, 05:28:14 PM
1. If you are referring to Olivia Colman in THE FAVOURITE: she should go Supporting if she or her studio want a win. She’s terrific, but will not win in Lead. She could and likely will pass for supporting, as others with more screen time in the recent years haved dropped down to win.

2. This is Cooper’s best performance to date. He will win something on Oscar night, whether it is Picture, Director or Actor is unknown. He will not go home empty handed for his efforts. Even though Gaga g


A Star Is Born review. WOW!  Oct 4 2018, 07:55:16 AM

lotiloti said: "I must have seen a different movie.

Apart from first 20 mins, I thought it cold, soulless, and void of any emotional depth.


"

Oh, I could not agree less. I thought the film was exquisite. And those performances will garner some Academy love. Same goes for the songs.

In this very early leg of the race, my money is on Gaga. Her film will perform much better with the right circles, and she can ride that wave to


A Star Is Born review. WOW!  Aug 31 2018, 03:55:54 PM

Oh lawd, Glenn Close is SHOOK.

This was supposed to be her year in a cakewalk. 



NTLive - YERMA this week  Aug 12 2018, 01:03:37 PM
If you weren’t able to see it in person, absolutely go see the screening. Having seen both, nothing could ever match experiencing the production and that performance live. However, you owe it to yourself as a theatre goer to watch in a movie theater if you are able to.

Legendary.


What is the best show you have ever seen  Aug 7 2018, 12:53:38 PM

Yerma. (Park Ave Armory)

This thread is less than a week old.

It’s a joke that pokes fun at some of the archaic ideas in this thread.

Wear whatever you want. Let ‘em sweat their balls off.



Laurie Metcalf-what's next for her?  Jun 13 2018, 03:10:42 PM

I have to agree with Joe Mantello when he says that Laurie can do ANYTHING. She is on fire right now. Regardless of whether a Roseanne-less show is created in the next few months, she and the entire cast are still getting paid for the next season that never was. 

She'll be back on Broadway next season.
