Pacific Overtures (1976)
Found it on Youtube😁
I first heard the soundtrack of Pacific Overtures while overseas in 1977. We fell in love with it, the songs were so engaging and different. Had the soundtrack on a reel to reel which got retired years ago. Then we found a CD of the same original soundtrack some years back and revisited the music. Still so good, and fun.
Then we found the TV taping of a 1976 production with the original cast on Youtube. Wow, now we can experience the whole show and although longish it was delightful to actually see the actors and action.
In & of Itself (2020)
Cringeworthy. Magic and emotion, not an entertaining mix
A few good magic tricks, and I do mean a few. But oh so much emotion, too much and all manipulated by Derek. Not a movie I would ever encourage anyone to see. Too bad someone recommended this to me.
Boss Level (2020)
Low Expectations generated Great Entertainment
The idea has been done many times before, but this was fast paced, exciting and ultimately gratifying. The cameo casting was an extra delight. Most entertaining movie I have seen in a long while.
Clarice (2021)
It's Bad, Really Bad
Another show I was looking forward to, another show completely unwatchable and unentertaining.
All the characters seem to be negative in some way. Clarice as a timid young FBI agent intimidated by really awful FBI agents and supervisors. One would expect this show to elevate Clarice to show her growth after the Buffalo Bill case. But no, here we have the protagonist being the victim. I am not entertained by watching good individuals be victimized by people who should be helping. If the FBI actually operated this way we would be in a world of hurt.
Your Honor (2020)
Unbelievable
All the negative reviews have similar themes: idiot annoying son, plot holes, cleaning car in front of house at night with a flashlight.... ad nauseum.
We were looking forward to this highly rated show, but one wonders who is actually rating this drivel.
Didn't make it past second episode.
