White Nights (1985). A Russian American ballet dancer's airplane is forced to land in USSR, where he's "repatriated". He stays with an American man married to a Russian. Will the American help him flee USSR?
This movie is ?? Insane ?? Yet it kinda works! I think a huge part of that goes towards its terrific cast and some really affecting sequences that merge the Cold War thriller elements with the post-Vietnam War trauma and, well, the power of dance. If that sounds wild, that's because overall it is, and its a testament to Taylor Hackford's skill as a director. Just a surprise from start to finish (complimentary). 7/10.

merry crisis!
Anyway did u know for 5 bucks on gumroad u can get the LA Theatreworks 2001 live audio Recording of James Goldman's play The Lion in Winter w/ Alfred Molina as Henry II?
And if u have an account on hoopla, it's free!
Highly recommend if you've enjoyed the movie. The play has a lot more lines and fun details, and the style of this recording is a lot more quick paced, with the live audience giving it some humor and liveliness.

a friend asked why my url across platforms is always ohwhatagloomyshow & I explained that I had the honor of meeting Stephen Sondheim in 2013, where I built up the courage to thank him for his work and tell him the revival of Follies was the first show I’d ever seen on Broadway. He smiled and said kindly, “oh, what a gloomy show!” because I’m a 19 year old newborn baby praising a show about midlife crises.
Anyway, I told the friend it’s probably Sondheim’s gloomiest show, but that’s probably a debatable opinion! I would love to hear any arguments against it! I would say that of all his shows, it’s the one that ends with the least amount of hope. My definition of “gloomiest show” is most dependent on how you feel when you leave the theater, and in this case I do think Follies takes the cake, personally!
Full disclosure, the shows I’m least familiar with of Sondheim’s are Merrily & Passion.
