Peter Bogd. 1975 musical. Everyone hated this when it came out - people were busy taking 'ludes and participating in the counter culture and the man dropped a Cole Porter musical. Targets to this movie is a nonstop director run. Feels like a group of friends putting on a show and you're in on the bit. No one can really sing or dance. Love it.

Ever since I was like 8 I have been obsessed with the movie Xanadu. It’s campy, it’s fun, it has Oliva Newton John, Gene Kelly and ELO. The sound track is no joke one of my favorite albums ever and I have probably listened to it hundreds of times at this point in my life. It’s not a particularly great movie but I think it’s a good testament that sometimes things just speak to you not because of their objective goodness but because of your ability to see the beauty in it.

I love musicals!! There is nothing more americana than a corny movie adaptation of an even cornier broadway musical :’)
Their spirit overcomes their technical shortcomings! And you can get lost in the sauce of incredulous technicolor costuming and dance numbers. I just watched Bye Bye Birdie (1963) and it was so bad in all the right ways, can’t recommend enough!

📼Epic movie but a perfect trailer on its own that I watch frequently. An art in itself!

🏇The GOAT. Dress it up, up up, down, or down down. He looks incredible in every photo (and he's in on the joke when it's funny and he's in the biggest RRL jeans in history).

🎥“Don’t give up. I mean, try your best. You’ve done something. You’ve actually created something on the screen that’s there and you should be proud of that. It’s physically there now the emotional part will eventually materialize. Cough it up, cough it up gang, cough it up. It actually exists. Which is important. Because pictures are important. You’ve actually tried, you’ve tried very hard. And the trying shows. I want to thank you for trying. And I want to thank you for presenting this thing which evidently comes from deep inside your possible gut. And it has effected our soul in places we don’t realize right now it’s going to take time to seep in, seep out. And um it’s it’s uh it’s really quite an attempt. It’s been attempted and it’s, um, success is around the corner. Thank you. For that experience.”
