Before the Fall (2016)

oh my word. I loved this one for many many reasons.

It really set up the class distinction between an attorney and a welder, but in a fascinating turnabout, Ben Bennet and his group are the wealthy ones and Lee Darcy is a college dropout going through a really hard time in his life. Lee has been drinking too much, got in an argument with his girlfriend Cathy, and pushed her. The cops were called and he ended up with a felony on his record. Ben dismisses him as "a drunk who beat up his girlfriend" and Lee overhears.

A couple months later, Lee is a month into sober recovery and is friends with Chuck Bingley, who kind of drags him to a party Ben is throwing. Ben's best friend Jane has an instant zing with Chuck; Lee feels out of place and leaves. Afterward, Ben realizes: "I just figured out where I've seen him before. I saw him get charged with a felony a few months ago. He thinks I'm the biggest asshole on the planet"

By the way, the Lydia/Kitty characters? Meet Kit and Lyle and I love them

Ben is starting to get to know George Wickham, a criminal defense attorney who - spoiler alert - is the epitome of why the profession is starting to drop the idea of defending their clients with "utmost zeal".

Cathy is uh. Not a great person. "Do you have a girlfriend, Ben?" "Nah I'm gay, but I don't have a boyfriend." "You don't act like you're gay," "...How do gays act?" "Oh c'mon you know. I don't have a problem with gays. I had one where I worked I treated him like he was normal." ಠ_ಠ

I'm so torn between telling y'all everything that happened and telling y'all to just go watch it. I had never heard of it before now, but the music is gorgeous and there are a few fascinating conversations about gay vs straight relationships and how they're perceived by the public, thanks to Cathy (who seems to be Caroline and Lady Catherine all rolled into one).

Ben is adorable, and Lee is afraid, and it's so fascinating how they blended the character arcs. Ben is Elizabeth Bennet in so many ways - Jane's best friend, briefly falls for Wickham - but he's also Darcy - affluent, insulting, advises Jane away from an imprudent relationship, makes the big dramatic overture to secretly help the other since he's fallen in love. (they also put him in the rain at one point and even though he's not the character named Darcy, I'm counting it since he follows Darcy's plot points quite a bit, fight me)

This movie was beautiful and had me wondering if we'd get a happily ever after right up until the end. Give it a chance <3

COMICS ART 9

[theloniousbach]

COUCH TOUR: JAZZ IN JULY ALL-STAR FINALE, 92NY, 27 JULY 2023

BILL CHARLAP with Jeremy Pelt, Nicole Glover, Steve Wilson, Ken Peplowski, John Pizzarelli, Renee Rosnes, David Wong, and Dennis Mackrell

I signed up for this wrap up to the 92NY series which BILL CHARLAP curated evidently for the last time. I swapped out last Thursday’s piano extravaganza for the Veronica Swift/Caleb Teicher set which wasn’t technically part of the program. I forewent the multiple piano set for the same reason that my expectations were muted for this show—lots of folks to shepherd across the stage, juxtapositions that would be more curious interesting than successful interesting. Last year Charlap had tenor favorites Chris Potter and NICOLE GLOVER together with guitarist Mike Stern and that was, er, interesting. There were some moments like that, but it worked.

‘S Wonderful was the opener and everyone got solo space. Ken Peplowski’s clarinet was, here, kind of clunky and old fashioned and John Pizzarelli’s vocals were charming but thin though his chordal guitar solos was fine. I am very fond of Jeremy Pelt’s smooth tone and improvisational ideas and Glover’s overall edge. It has been good to see her in Artemis, with Allison Miller, and in these settings with Charlap where she exhibits that she sure can play standards.

But the revelation was Steve Wilson whose alto work was lyrical and fresh. I didn’t hear much Charlie Parker in him, but also not Lee Konitz nor Paul Desmond. I have to then guess that he perhaps draws on Johnny Hodges. In any case, Charlap said that no one sings with the horn like Steve Wilson. He always captures something about his bandmates in his always generous comments, but they do sometimes seem over the top. Still, in this case, yes, Steve Wilson sings—on that opener, A Time for Love, a blues, and the closer.

Pizarelli sang the opener, It Had To Be You with Jeremy Pelt as his foil, and Three Little Words with Ken Peplowski’s clarinet beginning to grow on me. I was fully in his camp as he took up Rosnes’ Life Does Not Wait with Glover. It was a very different tune with each horn, including how the composer comped for them, and that widened my ears.

Rosnes and Charlap reprised Lyle Mays’ Chorino from their Double Portrait album with projected camera shots of each keyboard above the stage to help sort things out. Piano duets are risky but one was worthwhile. Rosnes has brought Mays’ Slink into the Artemis book so I have to think she’s the one with the appreciation of him and so it is for her that I will do my homework on him. It was she not her husband who had the piano seat for the A Time For Love with Steve Wilson and the It Had To Be You.

But it was Charlap who was on the bandstand for Kenny Dorham’s Windmill, a Sweet Georgia Brown contrafact, perfectly suited to Pelt and Glover. As with the John Scofield gig on Tuesday, Charlap, of course, knows and can play jazz compositions. That was a fun one, in part because I enjoyed seeing Glover on a bigger stage.

Charlap offered extensive appreciative comments for any and all concerned in the production of the series, including the stage crew, but also his family, including Rosnes, he reflected on inheriting this series from Dick Hyman and in turn that Aaron Diehl will do just fine (and he will, but he’s not as special to me as Charlap). But then he, David Wong, and Dennis Mackrell played a whisper quiet, simply exquisite Some Other Time which I last heard from Tony Bennet and Bill Evans on a 1976 Canadian television program.

The rollicking closer was inevitable and just fine, well played all around. But it was a reminder of how crowded the stage can get particularly when there’s magic like the Dorham or the two sides of Rosnes’ tune or especially that magical Some Other Time.

I’ll see Bill Charlap next season at Jazz St Louis, maybe twice. He’s worth it as he proved over these two weeks with 92NY.

I thought for dessert we could go to that adorable yogurt place near the bus depot.

[heroes-trash]

rewatch update: Lyle really got the most bastard role didn’t he. pretty much anyone and anything that could otherwise be considered an antagonist had at least some sympathetic, or at least interesting points. his entire character was ‘being annoying’ and ‘outing Claire for fame’. i’d say poor guy if i didn’t want to smash his face in for 1) stealing Claire’s stuff, 2) stapling her hand and 3) locking himself in a car and shouting ‘help, my sister’s a freak!’ loudly to all the neighbours, not looking frightened just pissed.

and in case you’re wondering about the ‘for fame’ part of things - he leaked her tapes to the press post-S4. and while that wasn’t technically outing her... and he didn’t even do it under his real name, just his preferred pseudonym (’Hellbee’, bc that’s what L.B. sounds like.......apparently)....... he didn’t ask her?? didn’t ask anybody???

like just,,, his character sucks. is what i’m saying :’D

[incorrectprimatechquotes]

Lyle: What am I thinking?

Claire: I can heal, I'm not psychic.

Sandra: Can you understand dogs?

Claire: No.

Sandra: I can.

[endlessly-cursed]

𝑯𝑷𝑯𝑳– 𝑫𝒂𝒚 𝟐

Some ships and friendships that give me life:

Jadia (Jesse Seymour x Nadia Erbland (@gcldensnitch)

One of my fave tropes: Himbo boi x femdom lmao. This ship is my oldest one and god, are they soulmates. They're both the definition of high-school sweethearts and pining idiots. They're very special to me and will always have a special place in my heart 💕

Blyle (Blanche Dubois x Lionel 'Lyle' Astor) @cursebreakerfarrier

Ahhh, the soft boi and the confident but soft girl. Blanche was fated to marry someone else, but Lyle here convinced her father that he was a better match. Theirs is one of the very arranged marriages that are a love match. Their story is so soft– she grew as a person and their love persevered even after she went to study abroad and their sense of duty and the fact that Blanche keeps dear Lyle on his toes and always makes him blush... I love them with all my heart 💕😚

Erbigail (Ernest Di Napoli x Abigail Bennett) @beloved-bucky

EEEEE!!! One of my favourite tropes!! Slytherin boi who is fated to follow into his father's footsteps falls for someone who should be his enemy (a Gryffindor woman who challenges him) and their love makes him a better man and ends up marrying her and challenging his father and setting free his family. These two are one of my most recent and are one of my favs already <3

Vinnilia (Cecilia Balinor x Lavinia Wakefield) @gaygryffindorgal

Ahhh, my fav Victorian wlw. These two are the definition of rich influential pureblood girl falls in love with a poor muggle girl and find out they have a lot in common and fall in love 🥰 Vinnie is Cecy's best version of herself, her heart and weakness that makes her stronger. If you don't love Cecilia or Vinnilia you failed as a wlw and LGBTQ+ supporter

Laurose (Primrose Gray x Laurent Yaxley) @slytherindisaster

Ahh, Laurose my beloved <3. Theirs is destined to be since the moment they first interacted. From partners to friends to lovers, it was their love for mysteries and many other things that brought them together, and one of the most delicious slowburns EVER!! They eventually find out they're in love with the other, and find a way to each other 🥰 Prim is Laurie's heart and jewel, and Laurie is Prim's love of her life. Thanks to Prim, Laurie's a better man and she's his entire happiness.

Nadia Erbland x Primrose Gray (@gcldensnitch)

Ahh, my best BFF duo!! Two women who bonded over being picky, hard to impress and overall badasses who took no shit from anybody and being bi icons. Nadia is Prim's lost sister and one of the people she loves the most on her life. The moment she met Nadia, she knew that they'd be amazing friends and have always been there for her and been her most ardent friend. They love each other very much and were best friends until the end.

Of course I have to mention my fav rivals-to-lovers Aderva (Adonis Demiurgos x Minerva Kennedy) @unfortunate-arrow Marcellus Thorne x Victoria Montgomery (@nightmaresart ) and my beloved Orlatrice (Orla Atkinson x Beatrice Brown) who also give me life <333
