Musical Mondays Week 59 Preview (CaleBug Tranch’s 4th Pick)

Recommended Posts

After last week's emotion-fest I bet he'll pick something upbeat like Sweeney Todd to lighten the mood.

I've got about 45 mins left on The Last Five Years, but I'm predicting an extremely happy ending. I'm not wrong, right?

Depends on whether you're pulling for Jamie or Cathy.  Also, 45 minutes left is halfway through.  It's a short movie.

I have to give the movie credit.  It is basically the stage play with storyline changes but the lyrics and music are pretty much spot on.  The stage show is around 90 minutes as well.

I sense a profile name change in CakeBug's future.

Hi folks! Sorry about the delay, I was driving down to Oswego this morning and just got in.

Re: CaleBug: the pair of pants I just failed to fit into might agree that switching from Cale to Cake might be the way to go.

Okay! This week's pick! I had a lot of thoughts, and very nearly made you all watch the Sharpay movie, just so we could go back to HSM, or 'Descendants', because why should I be the only one to have suffered, but I know there's also a really good chance that everyone would just take a pass on contributing this week.

My last three picks were Across the Universe (arguably the best pick yet, still), Guys and Dolls (meh) and La La Land (the film that killed Fister).  This time, I thought I'd go a bit off the beaten path with a film I haven't yet seen myself but which comes highly recommended by a playwright I greatly respect, who without question calls this his favorite musical of all time. So, no pressure. I have a DVD copy that that playwright sent to me, so I might be able to do some rabb.it screenings, or it's available for rent on Amazon and Apple.

So what is it? Not sure yet! Folks, let's watch our first musical Spike Lee joint! Let's watch...

Are there still spoiler tags?

Is this our first foray into recorded Live On Stage Musicals? I've seen this years ago and am looking forward to revisiting it.

It was streaming for awhile on a couple of platforms, I'll check BroadwayHD, if it's there I could probably host a screening as well (if not, well I can't)

I hate to break it to you Cale, but Rabbit doesn't allow DVD streamings so that cuts out that option lol.

Cinco chose Piya Behrupiya which was in front of an audience and a lot of us watched the live version of Rent when Cinco picked that one as well.
