Watching movies with my little brother is the best. Last night we were watching Gaslight and he came up with this gem.:
"This Gregory guy is an idiot. You married Ingrid Bergman! You're rich, you have a huge house, Ingrid Bergman fell in love with you, and you got married! You already won the lottery. But no, you want to get into it with the maid who's also a singing teapot."

this is a poll for a movie that doesn't exist.
It is vintage times. The powers that be have decided to again remake the classic vampire novel Dracula for the screen. in an amazing show of inter-studio solidarity, Hollywood’s most elite hotties are up for the starring roles. the producers know whoever they cast will greatly impact the genre, quality, and tone of the finished film, so they are turning to their wisest voices for guidance.
you are the new casting director for this star-studded epic. choose your players wisely.
Previously cast:
Jonathan Harker—Jimmy Stewart
The Old Woman—Martita Hunt
Count Dracula—Gloria Holden
Mina Murray—Setsuko Hara
Lucy Westenra—Judy Garland
The Three Voluptuous Women—Betty Grable, Marilyn Monroe, and Lauren Bacall
The Agonized Mother—Mary Philbin (rip)
Dr. Jack Seward—Vincent Price
Quincey P. Morris—Toshiro Mifune
Arthur Holmwood—Sidney Poitier
R.M. Renfield—Conrad Veidt
The Captain of the Demeter—Omar Sharif (rip)

The Correspondent for The Daily Graph—Ethel Waters
Dracula in dog form—Frank Oz with a puppet
Sister Agatha—Angela Lansbury
Mrs. Westenra—Gladys Cooper
Dracula's solicitors—Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee
Van Helsing is described at length in the novel. He is Dr. Seward's old mentor, possessing "an iron nerve, a temper of the ice-brook, an indomitable resolution, self-command, [....] and the kindliest and truest heart that beats." According to Mina, he is "a man of medium height, strongly built, with his shoulders set back over a broad, deep chest and a neck well balanced on the trunk as the head is on the neck. The poise of the head strikes me at once as indicative of thought and power. The head is noble, well-sized, broad, and large behind the ears. The face, clean-shaven, shows a hard, square chin, a large resolute, mobile mouth, a good-sized nose, rather straight, but with quick, sensitive nostrils, that seem to broaden as the big bushy brows come down and the mouth tightens. The forehead is broad and fine, rising at first almost straight and then sloping back above two bumps or ridges wide apart, such a forehead that the reddish hair cannot possibly tumble over it, but falls naturally back and to the sides. Big, dark blue eyes are set widely apart and are quick and tender or stern with the man's moods." Van Helsing tends to talk through funny stories and bizarre metaphors, is one of the first to consider the supernatural in Lucy's illness, and comes from Amsterdam.

Went a bit unhinged casting for an imaginary old Dracula movie made in the 50’s because why not
So far I’ve got:
Jeremy Brett as Jonathan Harker, with Audrey Hepburn as Mina
Angela Lansbury as Lucy
and Christopher Lee as Jack
Yes I was purposefully adding as many ‘played Dracula when they were older’ actors as I could think of (and then Peter Cushing can play Dracula because why not)
More pics of Jeremy Brett and Audrey Hepburn bc a) look how baby he is in that first pic oh my GOD and b) height difference!!
#dracula daily#still need van helsing arthur and quincey#there were a LOT of cowboy movies in the 50’s but they’re not the right vibe!!

Cabaret's Shifting Lead Placement
Welcome to another rambling theatre history lesson with DroughtofApathy. Today we're going to examining the fascinating history of Cabaret's ever-changing lead roles.
Ground rule: Tony eligibility for Lead Actor/Actress is first determined by "above-the-title" billing in the show's opening night Playbill. It was a far stricter guideline in the past, as you'll see. These days, many lead roles aren't put above the title (ex. Hadestown, Kimberly Akimbo, etc.) but will be placed in lead categories either because it's obviously a lead, or because producers lobby for it. Conversely, actors can have "above-the-title" billing and be in featured roles, usually because they're major names like Angela Lansbury and Elaine Stritch, who were both Madame Armfeldt in the 2009/2011 revival of A Little Night Music. In which case, producers will usually submit them as featured.
When Cabaret opened on Broadway in 1966, Jill Haworth (Sally), Jack Gilford (Herr Schultz), and Bert Convey (Cliff) got top billing with Lotte Lenya (Fraulein Schneider) in the coveted "and" slot just below. Note who's missing. That's right. When the show premiered, Joel Grey (Emcee) was just a regular old featured role.
Left: opening night playbill billing. Right: post-Tony rebilling with Joel Grey's ascension.
At the 1967 Tonys, Jack Gilford (Herr Schultz) and Lotte Lenya (Fraulein Schneider) were nominated as Leading Actor/Actress, respectively, while Joel Grey and Edward Winter (Ernst Ludwig) were both in Featured. Jill Haworth (Sally) was not nominated, but would have been eligible for Lead as she had "above-the-title" billing. At the time, Joel Grey was just another working actor. Not so after Cabaret. His performance elevated both the role and his billing, thus transforming the Emcee into a Leading Role from then on.
Subsequent productions would focus more on Sally and the Emcee, while Schultz and Schneider (and the non-singing Cliff) would become featured roles. However, the "above the title" Tony ruling was far stricter back in the day, leading Sally (this time Alyson Reed) to once more be featured in the 1987 revival.
Left: opening night Playbill billing. Right: poster billing
In 1987, Joel Grey was given the sole "above-the-title" billing with Alyson Reed in the next featured spot. Though Sally was, like 1966, technically a lead role, she was nominated in featured at the Tonys that season. (Grey was not eligible as he was reprising his role.) In this production, Regina Resnik (Schneider) and Werner Klemperer (Schultz) both got fancy featured billing and nominations in their respective categories. As Cliff, Gregg Edelman got the "and" billing, but in this case it was less elevated than either Resnik or Klemperer (note the boxes). Edelman was still early-career at this point, and not yet a "name" but Cliff was still considered an elevated role in the company.
By 1998, however, the roles as we currently think of them had finally slotted into place. Alan Cumming (Emcee) won for Best Actor, Natasha Richardson (Sally) for Best Actress and Ron Rifkin (Schultz) for Featured Actor. Mary Louise Wilson (Schneider) was nominated in Featured Actress. Richardson also received left-side billing, as she was a larger name (arguably) than Cumming at the time.
Left: opening night Playbill billing. Right: lobby poster billing
But though nominations seemed to make sense, it still didn't jive with billing placement. In the 1998 production, Richardson, Cumming, and Rifkin all had "above-the-title" with Wilson in the featured "and" slot. Despite this placement, Rifkin went in for Featured. Producers can lobby the Tony committee for actor placement if they think it fitting, and these days we're a lot more fast-and-loose with the definitions. Note however, how Wilson has "above-the-title" billing in the lobby board. This was presumably a contractual renegotiation that happened post-Tonys. Note how Denis O'Hare (Ernst) and Michele Pawk (Kost) have their own line below John Benjamin Hickey (Cliff). All three were/are modest, but known, names in the theatre world, about equal to one another, at least at the time.
By 2014, the old couple (Schultz and Schneider) no longer would get top billing. Alan Cumming only built upon Joel Grey's foundation to fully elevate the Emcee role into the undisputed leading man, with Sally the star-vehicle leading lady. Between the 1998 and up until the recent revival, the older couple's story--and Cliff's importance--had taken a backseat.
Left: opening night Playbill billing. Right: poster billing.
In 2014, the revival won no Tonys, but was nominated for both Featured Actor and Actress (Danny Burstein and Linda Emond, respectively). Cumming was not eligible as, like Joel Grey before him, he was reprising his role. This time, with a Tony in his pocket, and a much bigger name than 16 years prior, he got left-side billing. Emond and Burstein received equal line billing below the title, with Emond getting the left. Though they were roughly equal in the theatre world, and Burstein had a slight edge in terms of Tony noms, I'd guess Emond got the left owing to her larger screen presence/notoriety. In the poster, Bill Heck (Cliff) is left out of featured billing entirely, as are Aaron Krohn (Ernst) and Gayle Rankin (Kost).
Now we come to our latest revival, number four. Though it's still too early for nominations, we can assume Eddie Redmayne (Emcee) and Gayle Rankin (Sally) will be leads with all others featured. Historically, Schultz and Schneider are roles that receive nominations, and the Emcee a role that wins. Will that hold in a wildly over-crowded season?
Left: first preview Playbill insert. Right: billing poster outside the theater.
Once more deviating from past productions, the roles of Cliff (Ato Blankson-Wood), Ernst (Henry Gottfried), and Kost (Natascia Diaz) are plucked back out of the company to be given featured billing. This time, Steven Skybell (Schultz) is on even footing with Cliff, even slightly under with his right-side billing. This would be the least "elevated" billing any Schultz has ever gotten. Skybell is a respected theatre veteran but not quite a household name, even in theatre circles. Blankson-Wood, meanwhile, is a recent Tony nominee. It's all politics when it comes to billing.
Here, Bebe Neuwirth (Schneider) is given the coveted "and" poster billing, no surprise. Of the featured roles, she's inarguably the biggest name. A few decades ago, that might have been enough to get her above the title, but these days it's less common that a solidly featured role would get that (unless you're Patti LuPone in Company, and Bebe doesn't have quite the same sway or ego).
This, to me, seems like the most obvious case of industry politics and agent negotiation at play, and usually actors (and egos) aren't even involved in the conversation. Skybell and Neuwirth aren't on the same level, though their characters are. My guess here is that producers want to bill their sole two-time Tony winner separately, and Skybell's agents know he isn't big enough to dispute that.
Now, let's take a look at this marketing design. Redmayne's name is left-billed despite being above Rankin's head. While annoying for those of us audience members who might just see this as a design flaw, this is all contractual, negotiated to death. Redmayne also gets front-and-center positioning, while Rankin is in the background, off-center, but she gets left-side position, which isn't as minimizing as right-side would. Left-billing is given to the bigger name because English reads left to right. These are the kinds of things I think about when I see marketing ads and playbills.
#cabaret#cabaret broadway#history lessons with doa#ask me about the sweeney todd teaser key art please it's an even better example of contracts at play#yeah i *did* stalk the ebay pages until someone put a playbill picture up for listing i'm just that dedicated to the craft#bebe neuwirth#joel grey#alan cumming#it's 9:30 a.m. but we're going live with this because why the fuck not?

I wrangled a collection of Rankin Bass Christmas specials - not just Rudolph and Santa Claus is Coming to Town. No. I got the...other ones.
Thought I should watch them all, if they're as fun as the others.
They aren't, and I understand why they didn't become Christmas Classics.
Jack Frost - ok, with a good bit of "how to not be an ass when you've been friendzoned".
First Christmas Snow - boring. Nuns, orphans, sheep. Angela Lansbury I guess, but not worth it.
Leprechaun's Christmas Gold - ? I mean ? I thought it was going to be a cautionary tale, like, "don't pull up trees on mysterious islands", but it turned out to be more like "don't get tricked by banshee or your husband will go out for a pack of cigarettes and never come back".
Pinocchio's Christmas - this is when I started skipping the songs. What an annoying little shit. Geppetto has a wig.
Rudolph's Shiny New Year - I hate baby noises, and I don't like Jerry Lewis impersonations, even if they are by a cave man. "It's ok that people laugh at you, it means you make them happy" wow that was some bullshit.
But if you want to be fully horrified?
Nestor, the Long-Eared Christmas Donkey
What the fuck even.
Only pain.
Romans stealing the livestock for slaves - yes, they use that word - never to be heard about again.
Nestor spending the night in a storm under the dead body of his mother. Awesome. "Whatever happens, you must be brave" she says.
I'm trying not to nitpick a dead donkey, but there was a sheltered cliff wall like 5 feet to their left.
Yes, that's his mom. "The lord works in mysterious ways," says the narrator.
It's ok though, he finds a cherub (?) and then finds Jesus.
Oh I should mention that the story is being told by his great-great-child of some type, who now works for Santa as a dray horse basically.
So anyway I don't think I can watch anymore. Sorry. There are so many and I just...can't.
(I did watch the Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, which was bonkers enough to merit its own post though. Image-heavy let me tell you.)

Hi Maddie <3 I’ve been watching Man From Uncle and I’d love to know your favourite guest stars throughout the shows run! I’ve seen the Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner episode but who else can I look out for??
there are so many good guest stars throughout the whole run! robert culp shows up in the first season episode "the shark affair" and it's. uncomfortably horny; jack palance, janet leigh, joan blondell, elisha cook jr., and other fantastic golden age actors show up in "the concrete overcoat affair"; "the never-never affair" is wild and features barbara feldon and cesar romero; sonny and cher are in "the hot number affair" which is a bad episode that i still found incredibly funny; vincent price is great in "the foxes and hounds affair"; i just watched joan collins in a dual role in "the galatea affair" last night which was a pretty good episode for season three standards (and she's always awesome); ricardo montalbán is charming and funny in "the king of diamonds affair"; i haven't seen the episode angela lansbury guest stars in ("the deadly toys affair") but she's always awesome!
these ones are just off the top of my head but the list of episodes on wikipedia for the most part also tells you who the guest stars are so you can keep your eyes peeled for any names you recognize!

Okay not to go all Charlie-Day-Murder-board on everyone but I keep seeing weird connections with FF8 and Celine Dion??
So first off, I have heard that Celine Dion was considered for Eyes On Me. I have not been able to stop thinking about this fact since I learned it. I would give ANYTHING to hear that version - love the original but would be fascinated to hear it in Celine's voice.
I think that version would give real Titanic vibes. In this context, Titanic's theme, My Heart Will Go On and Eyes on Me seem sonically similar. Funnily enough, River Phoenix (the actor Squall's hair/facial features are based off of) was considered for the role of Jack. Hmmm.
And then I just reblogged two gif sets showing cinematic similarities between FF8 and Beauty and the Beast. It's honestly so striking I wonder if Beauty and the Beast (1991) influenced FF8 (1999). And who sang Tale as Old as Time? Well, Angela Lansbury... BUT ALSO CELINE DION (arguably the more iconic version).
The simple answer is that FF8 is quintessentially a product of the 90s, just like all the things mentioned above... but gosh do I love using this red yarn

Titan Maximum #6: "Dirty Lansbury" | November 1, 2009 - 11:30PM | S01E06
This episode has the Titan Maximum guys going to Mercury, because Jodi (the non-mean girl), who boned Gibbs (the bad guy) last episode, figured out he's probably there based on stuff. They had sex in that episode, a fact I wasn’t sure of and didn’t report because this show repels me so much that I really have to pay attention to understand basic plot points from it.
They go to Mercury, which is a huge retirement community where basically everybody’s grandparents live. They have to feign like they are all just there to visit their own grandparents or else they get kicked out, so we dip a little bit into character backstory as a result. The end of the episode is that Jodi and Gibbs’ sexual tryst is televised, and everyone sees it.
Notable bits, I guess: This one is framed by the Peeper, a parody of a Marvel Comics character, I think? He has a line about witnessing different parallel realities and jacking off to them. The closest the show has come to make me laugh. There’s a gag where the grandparents are shown doing sexual dances to filthy rap music, which I vaguely remember being a Dane Cook joke, I think? Not that he’s any kind of yardstick for original thought. Also found are references to Top Gun and Over the Top. This one didn’t piss me off or anything, but it still wasn’t too good.
