It’s been a while since I had last seen that one. How does it hold up? I’ll check it out soon.
I did rewatch The Sting a few weeks ago and it is still very much an enjoyable movie - definitely recommended!

It’s timeless. The Sting is next on my list.
Flew into JFK yesterday. Took a cab. Noticed the taxi driver was a bit all over the place, and making sudden turns regularly. When we were in the UES, I suddenly heard a police siren behind us and the now legendary words through the police car’s speaker: “yo, cabbie!”.
I saw these guys live, over a decade ago I believe. They were really good that evening, a bit like this clip here.
Florence Price symphony #3. Excellent.
Last night was a live performance of Tosca
At the Met? How was it? Still thinking of going…
If you can wait until April, Angela Gheorghiu sings. We saw her Tosca a decade ago – thrilling. She’s the whole package. Singing, of course; looks wonderful; and she can act (not just find the mark).
Oh heavens no.
St Pete Opera.
That was a good movie, I’ve always been a fan of the director Ridley Scott. May not be his best, but still.
Especially watching Michael Douglas, he was electrifying in that era! I watched Wall Street again last week, and was surprised to see the movie holding up so well, really a good movie. Though I am a bit biased for personal reasons as I work in the same industry. This songs pops up in one of the scenes.
Decided against visiting Tosca at the Met, so watching some old youtubes now. Wish I was alive when Tebaldi was singing… Majestic.
Darius Rucker: I like this guy’s music.
Beautiful album.
so many stars in the group here but I’m a big Mick Ronson fan so there’s that…
Listening to Hurricane, and the Lonesome Ballad of Hattie Carroll, the times they are a changin?
Beautiful rendition! Have only seen the first 15 minutes or so (in a cab to dinner!) but will definitely check out who the singers are and such. Is this your favourite Tosca?
They were once the Power Couple of opera. She’s the whole package we earlier praised.
No longer married, if we’re current with stuff we don’t follow.
