And always wonderful to see Bruce Campbell in theaters. The best.

They also played a bunch of behind the scenes footage ahead of each one! Very cool to see on the big screen.

This building was a bank a century ago, now there are bathrooms through the former vault door. This is such a cool space for a theater.

The underground theater space was pretty cool too and the Latino Theater Co did cool stuff with the sets. The play was pretty good - funny, even if the message of the play was a little muddled. Great acting from "The Law" character especially, straight out of an old pulp noir.

Imo, the only person in this film who was cast correct was Jean Simmons. Everyone else felt like they were acting in completely different movies all at once.

This movie just broke the fourth wall and had Sinatra and crew looking out and pointing straight at me, while singing about a guy at home watching his television set. How did I just get called out from 70 years ago wtf

Didn't love this one. Astaire and Rogers were both brilliant, but the plot was complete trash and the writing was nonsensical. And Victor Moore gave one of the worst, most off-putting performances I've ever seen. Great dances, great music, nothing else worked at all.

Top Hat was fantastic! One of the best mistaken identity romcoms ever. And such amazing dancing, so many good setpieces! A quick scene with Lucille Ball before her fame too. Great music. So funny. "Well if Madge doesn't mind, why should I?"

Can't wait to see more Berlin/Astaire/Rogers.

It ended with a tea ceremony and final chance to pay our respects to our hero, laying a flower over his funeral chariot.

Thrilling, chilling, moving, fantastic in every way. I wish there were more events like the Cortège!

The dramatic conclusion led to a festive dance party with some of the beasts.

No words can really do this justice. It was like being on another planet in a completely fantastic culture. Those robot dogs always make me uneasy.
