Mia Farrow deserved an Oscar nomination?!?! For what?

Bette Midler is way past the age range for this role. In your head it sounds good. In reality…not so much

I’m not paying upwards of $100 to see a drag queen in an Off-Broadway musical. This is the nadir of stunt casting. Producers cashing in on someone’s reality TV “fame” to line their pockets.

His shows run, and that means jobs."Yes, of course because you weren’t the one who was abused and had a computer monitor smashed a good your head or had a stapler hurled in your direction. You guys are BEYOND ridiculous. You pick and choose who you decide to cancel based on what fits your needs.YOU SUCK!

Silverman is 53 now, she might have missed her window for that role."Oh! So it doesn’t “touch lightly” at his later years as a director as the proverbial BWW “know-it-all” claims. Inter...

I actually like the UK poster art more than I do the (US) one.

Here is an article from Vanity Fair pleading her case:Barbra Streisand on THE WAY WE WERE and Her Fight to Get It Right

There is some backlash in film circles regarding her decision to do this. Pollack felt the scenes in question were unnecessary, but Streisand always disagreed with his decision to cut them out. Many feel she is taking advantage of the fact that he has passed on by doing this against his original artistic vision.

Brolin is referring to the new alternate cut of THE WAY WE WERE which will also be included in the upcoming 4K UHD/Blu-ray 50th anniversary edition of the film to be released on November 21st.In close collaboration with Barbra Streisand and in celebration of the 50th anniversary of Sydney Pollack's classic film, Columbia Pictures presents a new extended version of THE WAY WE WERE — restoring two important scenes where the love story and the political story come together — alongside the origin...

The Other One said: "I wonder if it will include this, Marni Nixon's guide for foreign dubbers.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RphAMQa7fDs&t=374s"It does not. It does however include her demo recording of “I Have Confidence”

Alexander Lamar said: "Never in my life do I want to see A Chorus Line without the original choreography. For me, it’s as important to the story as the text and music."I agree. The choreography is part of the show's DNA. For me it simply is not A CHORUS LINE without Bennett's choreography.

On the subject of replacements, I seem to recall reading somewhere, it may have been in the Mandelbaum book, "A Chorus Line and the Musicals of Michael Bennett", that Bennett was not confident in the fourteen newcomers that were hired as replacements for the original cast. They were signed to something called "conversion contracts" which gave the management the option to convert the performer's contract to a run-of-the-play contract after the fifth performance or leave them on a standard mini...

Oh my! I am so glad she's okay and out & about!

Total Deja Vu that this show is being mentioned here now! I was cleaning the house yesterday and as I tend to do I was listening to my theater playlist when all of a sudden "Deep in the Night" by Linda Hopkins starts playing - - - and I stopped dead in my tracks and stayed there and didn't move a muscle until the song was over. What a voice and what a song! I had forgotten that I had the recording in my digital music library so it was a very welcomed surprise!
