Springtime for Hitler
Saw The Producers last night, Simon, who is busy decorating the Christmas tree says fabulous. I say marvellous or Simon says that’s what I could say. It was great fun, a wonderful cast and production, kinda magical, very funny, only we both say it went on a bit too long. It wasn’t full, so we managed to move from the back to the middle of the stalls and spread ourselves out over one row… my mum and T were there to – it was a present from David – thank you.
Talking about fascism have just finished The Plot Against America- the best book I’ve read in a while – read it now.
Presume you mean the stage show…The original film was hilarious,with brilliant cast,and was zany enough, but the trailer for the film of the musical is ghastly. Ridiculously and pointlessly OTT. I shall not be going to see that!
Saw a lovely film on Christmas Eve…Tickets. Takes place on a train going from Austria to Rome, 3 different stories, 3 different directors (an Italian, an Iranian and Ken Loach. Just people on a train, but such a lot in it.
Coram Boy at the NT is very good, but a scene before the interval might put you off your ice cream.
