#Dutch Marvin

What was the name of the teacher from Marvin Marvin again?

[yuespropagandablog]

Hello esteemed mutual. If you are reading this, then that means my propaganda is working. But you might still have questions, so I am here to answer them.

What is Falsettos?

A damn good musical.

But time to get serious. It's a sung-through musical written by William Finn and James Lapine, with Lapine also writing the music and lyrics. Falsettos is a two-act musical, like many, but it's important here because Falsettos is actually two musicals in one. The first act is March of the Falsettos, and the second act is Falsettoland. These are the last two installments of the Marvin Trilogy. The first part, In Trousers, flopped on off-Broadway and is also not part of Falsettos. Are you following?

The first acts centers on a Jewish man named Marvin (the main character of the Marvin Trilogy, who would've thought) and his homosexual relation with Whizzer, and how that impacts the family. He's left his wife Trina and son Jason to be with Whizzer, but Marvin is also Marvin, and loves to have a tight-knit family that includes all of them, but fails to see how his wish impacts the others. The second act takes place two years after the first and it's all about Jason's bar mitzvah, but oh, oh no, it's a homosexual story set in the 80s. Yeah folks, I am going to be upfront: this musical does not have a happy ending. Spoiler. I know. But I just want people to know what they're getting themselves into.

The show has a lot to say about gay life in the 70s and 80s, gender roles and masculinity, traditional family, illness, and Judaism. Yes, you cannot separate the Judaism from this show, no matter how hard a Spanish production tries.

Where can I watch it?

The original Falsettos debuted in 1992 on Broadway. I know it from its 2016 Broadway revival. There are, uh, slime tutorials for both (and also for In Trousers if you're interested), and the 2016 version also got a proshot that was aired on PBS, so they did have to censor some language. RIP "You save lives and I save chicken fat, I can't fucking deal with that", you will forever be missed. This link totally definitely does not lead to a YouTube upload of that proshot, what do you mean?

There are also a bunch of other productions, sometimes with footage, sometimes not. I actually saw the Dutch version in 2021 in Amsterdam (probably while I had COVID, but in my defense, I tested negative before I boarded my train!)

Is there a trailer or something?

Yes, here's a trailer for the proshot.

Here is their Tony performance, which is also my favourite song of the show:

(They did take out the "Lighbulb up the ass" and "I can't fucking deal with that", because America is America. But at least we got Andrew Rannell's boner in return?)

And for funsies, here's the Tony Awards performance of the OBC:

(They did censor the words "homosexuals" and "lesbians", unless that was the original lyrics. I dunno. I am not very familiar with the original one.)

You implied AIDS. Are there other content warnings?

Yes. AIDS will be the main theme of the second act. You can ignore it by just turning off the show after the song What More Can I Say, but that is obviously not the full show. There's also some period-typical homophobia, as in in act one, Jason is afraid that his father's homosexuality is a fatal hereditary disease. There are also a lot of dysfunctional relationship dynamics in act one, including one instance of physical abuse. Act two has the AIDS of it all and because of that, the major character death warning.

But is there also fun to be had?

Yes, definitely! One thing that makes Falsettos a good show is the tonal whipslash. Both act one and act two start out as the funniest shit you've ever seen and then BAM, drama. It is kind of impressive how the show does that. It has stellar comedic songs like Four Jews in a Room Bitching, My Father's A Homo/Everyone Tells Jason to See a Psychiatrist, I'm Breaking Down, Jason's Therapy, Year of the Child, Miracle of Judaism, The Baseball Game, A Day in Falsettoland, Everybody Hates His Parents and whatever the fuck March of the Falsettos (the song) is.

The first half of both acts you can't stop laughing and the second half of both acts you can't stop crying. That's Falsettos, baby!

Does the music slap?

Oh yeah. It is a fully sung-through musical. If that's not your jam, then you're better off skipping it. It also has a more "traditional" musical theatre sound, whatever that might mean. As you saw in the previous section, it has a lot of great comedic songs, with stellar lyrics like "Look, look, look, look, look, it's a lesbian from next door!/Followed by her lover who's a lesbian from next door too!", "Hepa-hepa-hepatitis-hepatitis?", "We're watching Jewish boys who cannot play baseball play baseball", "You have paintings of dicks!/Don't talk to me about taste!", "Lightbulbs in the ass!", the entire "You are going to kill your mother" section, "Homosexuals!!!!!" and of course the opening line of the entire show "Four Jews in a room bitching". And many more. But don't be fooled, because this song also has some emotional bangers (mostly in the second part of the acts due to the aforementioned tonal shift).

Are there German characters in this musical?

Mendel's last name Weisenbachfeld sounds German. Is that close enough?

Anyway here’s me with Dutch Marvin Falsettos

[randomvarious]

Today's compilation:

Lazy Afternoon 2001 Soul / R&B / Jazz / Adult Contemporary

I'll have you know that I really love it when brands release these stupid-as-hell, ephemeral promo comps that try to offer you a glimpse into their product's "personality." Over the years I've gotten to know that the Czech version of Sprite loves lots of trip hop and big beat tunes, Pottery Barn's into classic soul, Levi's has something of a country-rock streak, and Mercedes-Benz digs themselves some chill European lounge grooves. And I've also been on the hunt for a while now to learn what the windshield wiper company Rain X listens to, but their promo has proven to be elusive to me thus far 😔. But we love to treat our brands like people though, don't we folks?

So, here's one of those promos from a Dutch beer company called Brand Bier that sells in the US as Royal Brand. Currently owned by Heineken, they've been brewing since the *14th century*, and have been known as Brand since the 1870s. And given that deep history, you might think that their taste in music goes way back too, but what this 2001 CD seems to suggest is that this particular beer's love for tunes actually only begins in the early 50s 🤔. And their genres of choice? Why, soul, R&B, and a little bit of jazz, of course, and almost all of it from North America too!

And unlike a bunch of other brand promo comps that I've sifted through, this one's actually pretty well-put-together. It's a bit of a cheat code since it has a bunch of enormous hits on it, like Bill Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine," The Isley Brothers' "That Lady," Blood, Sweat & Tears' "Spinning Wheel," and Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing," but you'd probably never expect an Aretha Franklin deep cut, like her jazz-pop rendition of George & Ira Gershwin's "It Ain't Necessarily So," which appeared on her 1960 debut album, to be on a CD like this one. That song was never released as a single and it predates her rise to superstardom by about six or seven years.

So, sometimes I find that CDs like these serve better as coasters than they do as soundtracks for which to drink your beer by, but the photo used for this album's cover seems to nail the vibe pretty perfectly here. This is just a pleasant hour's-plus worth of classic tunes to sit on a floor and sip a beverage to; but stay away from the small handful of more modern adult contemporary 90s selections, though, because those tunes don't seem to have aged nearly as well as any of the ones that were recorded before them.

Highlights:

Bill Withers - "Who Is He (And What Is He to You?)" The Isley Brothers - "Who's That Lady" Earth, Wind & Fire - "Reasons" Blood, Sweat & Tears - "Spinning Wheel" Marvin Gaye - "Sexual Healing" The Manhattans - "Kiss and Say Goodbye" Billy Paul - "Me and Mrs. Jones" Aretha Franklin - "It Ain't Necessarily So" Louis Armstrong - "Mack the Knife" Bill Withers - "Ain't No Sunshine"

Some thoughts about the newest iCarly Revival ep, i'M a USA Bae

Alright, first of all I wanna say that I liked this episode a little bit better than the last one. I think it was able to serve its feminist purpose subtlety without taking away the fun and entertainment in it. With that, let's get into it deeper.

Main plot first. I think it's nice how we see Carly get opportunities related to her work. It helps show how she earns money and what problems she has as a full-time content creator. The spoof on the American Girl dolls was spot and reminiscent to spoofs from the original series. Then you have Carly's conflict about wanting to be a good role model—it's a very good topic to dive into because iCarly was one of the blueprints of utilizing the internet for entertainment (on and off-screen) and we all know now how unnecessarily brutal online communities are now. Side note, Miranda and Josh's dynamic is really fresh but also familiar and I like how it ties in with the show; it's also a good way to show a completely platonic male friendship of Carly's and I can't help but think if Paul would get along with Spencer. I'm really loving Paul in the show and I hope he becomes a recurring character.

Side plot A. I'm kinda hating how we don't get a lot of good Harper plots. I feel like we've brushed off Dutch way too easily and I want to see her be a human being that feels feelings. So far she's been more of a gag but hopefully the remaining episodes explore her more. There's really a lot about Harper that I wish to know given she's not an OG series character.

Side plot B. Surprisingly enough, Freddie's subplot was handled pretty well, in my opinion. It still felt like a subplot but at least it was essential to his growth as a character. As much as I'd like to see adult Creddie get together, Pearl and Freddie don't seem so bad. I'm seeing that the difficult parts of their relationship is starting but it's interesting to point out that—at this point—they are taking it slow. I think it is absolutely important for Freddie to take it slow, not only because of his two divorces, but also because Freddie has a lot on his plate right now. I did notice something important, but we'll talk about it on my next point... But before I do, Spencer knowing how to talk to a monkey makes so much sense it was very Ross Gellar of him + what happened to Jericho the falcon and Marvin the ostrich?

Now, Creddie hints. Not a lot on this episode aside from two important things I've noticed: 1) how they sit next to each other and 2) Freddie's comment about taking things slow. I might dedicate a whole analysis about their sitting next to each other some other time, so for now all I can say is that it's interesting to see that despite being comfortable with each other there is a respect for boundaries. I don't find it sad that Carly doesn't sit or stand as close to Freddie like before he started dating Pearl because it shows how much she respects and wants him to be happy. Now, Freddie's comment about taking things slow... To keep it simple, it's funny how Freddie says he never takes things slow when it's quite possible that he's already playing the long game with Carly. On second thought, maybe I should create a separate analysis for this too?

Overall, the episode was alright. It was definitely better than last week but I hope we get out of the mid-season slump very soon. I'm absolutely excited for the few eps we have left!

Marvin: Well, it rained today, but as a whole it's been warmer than it was last week. Cordelia: Why does it seem like every time you talk to us, you end up talking about the weather? Is your life so unimaginably dull that you can't think of any events in your life to describe that might be more interesting than the weather? Let's think of something for you to talk about other than the weather. I mean, we barely even know anything about you, other than where you live. Cordelia: Let's start there. What do you do for a living? Marvin: I'm a meteorologist.

An egomaniac and eternal smartass, I give you...

Heinrich von Schneeplestein!

Backstory & fun facts below the cut!

Heinrich is 38, 5′3, and a trans pansexual man!

Heinrich was born peacefully, unlike his brothers, as ‘Henrik’. Jack planned his entire life and existence from baby to his Henrik von Schneeplestein. He was a perfected Creation and, oh boy, does he know it. He was born right in front of Jack and immediately covered in blankets so he could come to terms with his backstory. The first words he spoke was an awkward, accented: “Someone get me coffee with whiskey or I kill everyone in this room.”

Henrik remembers an uneventful, spoiled life as the son of a rich single father in Germany. He remembers an easy, fully paid for FtM transition after only asking twice. He remembers medical school and a rowdy group of troublemakers as his college companions. He remembers Miranda, a Dutch exchange student, who he fell wildy, loudly in love with. He remembers the attractive tennis instructor that made him realise he loved men. He remembers Miranda sleeping with that instructor in revenge when she found out. He ripped apart everything from college while drunk the next day. He dropped contact with everyone, moved to Britain, and began using his three years of medical school to treat criminals and underground magicians. Occasionally, while living with the others, strange, shady people started showing up begging for Henrik. Well, actually... They asked for ‘Heinrich.’

Heinrich, as it turns out his actual name is, is an egomaniac at his core. He is, to himself, alway the smartest, hottest, coolest, funniest person in the room. When working in the hospital, his methods are very similar to Dr. House from House M.D. Heinrich is convinced he knows best, and to the chagrin of his colleagues, Heinrich is smart enough that he’s usually right. Heinrich isn’t self aware of it, but he shows a large amount of ADHD symptoms, with a tendency to hyperfixate on patient’s cases until they’re healed or dead. 

Jack loves Heinrich, and finds his egotistical behaviour charming and hilarious. They’re fond of each other and definitely friends, but they don’t spend much time together due to not sharing many interests. 

Jackie and Heinrich are BEST FRIENDS! They adore and feed off each other’s personalities greatly. Heinrich is confident enough to rub off on Jackie even in his most self-loathing moments. Jackie is kind and loving in a way that validates and assures Heinrich emotionally. They love just going for walks and talking, doing chores together, just plain being side by side. Heinrich buys Jackie his favourite foods and always patches him up after his escapades out on the street. 

Marvin is not fond of Heinrich when he’s first born. Why does Heinrich get to be perfect and loved by everyone? Why should he get to steal Jackie’s love? After months and months of bickering and hatred, Jackie blew up at Marvin in a shouting match worthy of a noise complaint. After this, Marvin began to apologise with actions, not words, and they slowly became more friendly and teasing in their bickering. 

Heinrich and Chase are very much the typical big & little brother! Heinrich does have shame and anger about the doctors not letting him help with Chase’s surgery and recovery after his attempt. Heinrich makes up for this by patching up every wound, sitting with him through every single breakdown, teasing and loving on Chase every chance he has. 

Heinrich does become good friends with Body/Jameson as he heals, but you will have to wait and see the story. ;-)

Heinrich is very proud of his trans identity and goes to pride every chance he gets. At work though, he’s closeted and tries to keep it just within his family.

Everyone close to Heinrich calls him Schneep! In fact it’s bizarre and usually a sign of danger if his brothers say his actual name. 

Heinrich always keeps his hair shaved-short and long on top. It’s his BRAND and if his hair is not neat, something is distressing him. 

Heinrich is fluent in German, English, and Mandarin!
