A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I'm taking CJ to see Company on Sunday. My high school performed Company my sophomore year and I was part of the stage crew - set building and lighting.
I enjoyed it a lot. The book is dated, but some of the scenes still work well and the actors sell the rest. And the score still KILLS. NPH is awesome.
I thought the book was impressively not dated, considering.
Spoiler regarding an actor who I believe filmed a scene in The Dark Knight Rises. There are not plot points associated with this information, but AV Club speculation.
The whole thing made my mouth fly open because I hadn't heard any of these rumors until now. There is a healthy spoiler warning on the page before you get to the info in case you have second thoughts.
I'm neither here nor there about the spoiler, but I am immensely entertained by the "Game Of Thrones' Sean Bean stabbed, briefly delaying his drinking" headline for another article at that site.

We're both right. In the first X-Men movie, they used Casa Loma for the interiors and stable shots. In the second and third they used Hatley Castle for the exteriors. [link] I guess they wanted to move school filming from Ontario to the Vancouver area.

Aha, that makes sense.
I saw Company last night. It was quite good. There were a couple of casting issues I had (Marta, Paul, and I just generally don't like Patti LuPone), but Neil Patrick Harris (and I say this as someone who is not usually overly enamored of his singing) was spot-on as Robert. It was very enjoyable, and the theatre crowd I saw it with seemed to enjoy it, as well.
