Meanwhile, in real life...

Last night [personal profile] buddleiacame round and I fed her and poured a bottle of wine down her throat and then forced her to watch the absolute classic Cabaret, which she had never seen. I think she enjoyed it, yay! I think it's a great film. It's certainly one of my favourite musicals, and it's so dark and unsettling and sexy. The songs have long ago sunk into my subconscious - I was in a school production - although I've gotta say one thing: I always thought that the script for the musical is a much better story than the film. Especially the ending. There's a lot more detail in the musical script, better characterisation, and a better handling of the menace and eventual myriad tragedies...

I've also seen the film version called I Am A Camera which was odd but also good. Could've used some songs though ;)

Tune in next time as I force my girlfriend to watch more films and tv shows she's never seen!  (can you believe she's never seen Farscape? *gasp*)

I'm astonished Selena never tied her down and forced her to watch it.

Yes, you must read Spider. And then you can read my acres of Transmetropolitan fanfic! Because it is apparently even better than the original material. Even if I say so myself.

Transmet is brilliant and Simon's stuff is amazingly good. It's right up there with the original material possibly even better!
