01. I never tire of Robbie’s massive insecurities and massive ego. The concert was fab.
02. Everything You Can See – wild. Absolutely wild. Easily one of the best docos I have ever seen. And if you’ve followed the story, this doco will blow your mind (note, it is essential that you watch the miniseries, The Dropout, first).
03. I always love La Bohème but this production was particularly lovely.
04. One film at the Jewish Film Festival and one at the British Film Festival –
- Block 10 – brutal but important that these stories are not forgotten.
- Bad Apples – a very, very dark comedy. I laughed.
05. One of my babies has headed off on his next stint of work… sailing in the Caribbean (jealous!).
06. Listening: Erica Avenue’s new track, Coming Round.
07. Gosh I miss George Michael. Saw the Faith tour doco at IMAX this week (worth the effort of IMAX). So many thoughts but specifically:
- he had an absolutely incredible voice
- how good were concerts in the eighties, when we didn’t know the set list, no one was filming it on their phones, there was no crowd control (but everyone was basically respectful and safe…)?
- trends in jeans can go away – nothing beats Levis 501s.
- the recording of the concert is available to listen to on Spotify (I’ve had it on repeat).
Here, here: re concerts back in the day! Nothing shits me more than people filming the whole gig on their phones and/or talking all the way through the show – I often want to say, why have you paid $120+ to do something you could do in the pub or at home!
