I didn't notice that, but maybe they kept he bands to dissuade men from hitting on them? Not that it worked with Saul...

On the episode, I think they only covered that the movie was based on Doris Lessing's novella "The Grandmothers" and didn't mention that Lessing has said her story was based on true events that she heard happened in a small community in Australia. Also, Kulap mentioned that she watched this movie at Sundance. I wonder if she remembered the audience laughing during the movie? According to this article the movie was...not received well (and I do feel a bit bad for the director).

Tom and Ian weren't in love with any of those hot young women, duh.

Think he got shunned by other sharks after that? Poor shark.

Is it also a British-ism to refer to Buenos Aires as the Big Apple? I've never heard that nickname for any other city than NYC.

In "Don't Cry for me Argentina," Evita says You won't believe me, all you will see is a girl you once knew Although she's dressed up to the nines At sixes and sevens with you Wtf does this mean? What does it mean to be at 6s and 7s?

But in the Lego Batman movie, they had shark repellent and it totes came in handy.

Oh gosh no, I wouldn't expect her to go higher than she can. Actually I was watching clips of Patti LuPone singing songs from Evita and I noticed a difference so I just wanted to figure it out. ETA: They "only" lowered it a step in Don't Cry for Me Argentina

I solved my own mystery. They dropped 2 whole steps in "A New Argentina" so instead of E5 Madonna sings C5 as the high note. You're welcome, me.

It’s like you don’t know cambert at all?

Definitely don't watch Boss Baby in the theater. Maybe don't watch Boss Baby at all. Valerian...eh, might be alright in the theater.

FISTER SMASH!!!

Maybe because ALW...gets inspired by other people's music. "I'd Be Surprisingly Good For You" - it reminds me of something else, it was driving me nuts. Then I figured out it reminds me of the Beatles' Yesterday in one spot ("Now it looks as though they're here to stay"). Some people online said that "Another Suitcase Another Hall" is very similar to this song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI1EOxwnpvk

Um, hello, you prostitution whore.

I liked some of the melodies in the musical, but overall I thought the lyrics were meh. Parts of the movie draaaaaaagged. I thought Madonna was alright. She was beautiful and her singing was ok (I'm pretty sure they lowered the octave at times, most notably in A New Argentina, but whatevs). What I missed most was Madonna's charisma. Where's the sass? I didn't believe that Evita was as power hungry as Che tried to convince us. Madonna's Evita seemed nice. She threw a woman out of bed once, but while in office, it looked like she did a lot for the peasants. Even when she's addressing the people on the balcony, her motions and expressions seemed flat.

Im looking forward to watching Book of Henry though

Starlee Kine asked to do The Lake House!

^ I don't know what that is but I want to watch it.

What about A League of her Own? Too small of a part?

Was anyone else disappointed there was no All About Eve reference?

I think my account is female.

Sorry I didn't see this until now. I considered it for a second, but reality set in lol.

Interesting! I didn't know this movie existed until now.

You dont? Weirdo.

One more thing. Did anyone else notice this gorgeous quilt hanging in Djay's studio? I love finding lovely quilts in random movies. One of my favs was from Pumpkinhead, lol.
