inflicting people with my cyrano soundtrack thoughts (spoilers)

Okay, I'm listening to the Cyrano soundtrack and I have Thoughts:

1. I think having Dinklage's (my love, my life) voice be distinctively different and less perfect than Christian and Roxanne's is sort of a great form follows function Moment? Like his voice is more unpolished? Like he genuinely is more awkward and rougher in the way he expresses himself, even though his lyrics are denser than theirs. and that's...the character? If the language of this world is love songs than his are not perfect and confident. I don't know, the contrast is working for me actually. A perfectly sung Cyrano would be ineffectual actually.

2. You can totally tell where erica schmidt (my love, my life) cut the text, specifically soliloquies? like, you can totally tell. and as a fan of musicals, i kind of love that they were like "lol, we're going to just write a national album and have movie stars perform it. :-)" The songs really aren't propulsive or catchy and they're not supposed to be? and i think that's cool, actually? if you like the national, you'll like the soundtrack.

3. obsessed with how every musical with a french literature/historical backgrounds have the exact same song. there is no difference between cyrano's what i deserve; les mis' stars; and the scarlet pimpernel's 'a falcon in the dive.' no difference at all. all french villains are one (1) incel, sharing one (1) brain cell.

4. i always forget that cyrano de begerac is technically a tragedy lol. i don't know what i think happens in the end. but every time i see it or read about it, i'm always SHOCKED to my core. :0 like am i crying right now. maybe.

5. the instrumentation is good. like, i love me a robust string section.

6. on that note (holy shit, i'm so funny), i think the fact that they included the musical cues and instrumental pieces on the record is so cooooool. i love the concept of the music being the 'lifeblood' of the production and the idea of the instrumental being constant while the words drop in and out.

7. Wherever I fall is my favorite part of the soundtrack. Like, this was the moment where it is all synthesized for me and I was like, "Oh the National are actually perfect for this and should write about war more often?" like, i can just imagine this moment as being exactly like in kenneth branagh's henry v: non nobis domine...but not obviously. but Vibes are the same? no, i will not explain myself.

8. Did you know that Rostand died of the 1918 flu pandemic? that's sad.

9. In a longstanding theatrical tradition, Dinklage sings good for a dying man...also i think maybe singing 'have you ever wanted someone so badly you cannot breathe' while dying is...a ChOiCe

10. LOLOLOL proving my earlier point, somebody desperate sung by the national over the credits is literally indistinguishable from the rest of the soundtrack. like, i was like--they resurrected cyrano???

11. the ending sells the whole package to me. ngl.

Himarijeva in Kimata sta mladinska olimpijska prvaka v big airu, Kuhar 20.

Asanuma Hinari in Ryoka Kimata sta postala mladinska olimpijska prvaka v big airu. Ožbe Kuhar mladinske zimske olimpijske igre v Švici zapušča z 20. mestom v kategoriji big air. Verdnikova in Kralj Kos tja potujeta z željo po uvrstitvi med najboljših deset v halfpipu.

Vrhničan Ožbe Kuhar, mladi up slovenskega freestyle snowboardinga, je mladinske olimpijske igre ˝Lozana 2020˝ zaključil z nastopom v big airu. Tako kot včeraj v slopestylu, ko je osvojil 19.mesto, se mu tudi danes nastopa v Leysinu nista izšla po željah. Osvojil je 20. mesto.

Nova big air mladinska olimpijska prvaka sta postala japonska predstavnika Asanuma Hinari in Ryoma Kimata. V moski kategoriji je Ryoma s fascinantno oceno 195 tock za 3.25 točke premagal rojaka Kawakamija Aotoja. Kanadčan Liam Brearley pa je v svojo zbirko snowboard odličji letošnjih Mladinskih olimpijskih iger razširil ter bronu iz halfpipa in srebru v slopestylu dodal še bron v big airu.

Japonka Asanuma Hirani je premagala nemško tekmico Anniko Morgan, ki je s prebojem v finale tekmovanja Laax Open, minuli teden navdušila tudi na tekmovanju za svetovni pokal v slopestylu. Tretje mesto je osvojila Nizozemka Melissa Peperkamp.

Kuhar se bo s trenerjem Anejem Miglarjem udeležil današnje večerne zaključne slovesnosti že jutri pa se vrača v Slovenijo, kjer ga čaka nekaj odmora in nato novi treningi ter nastopi na tekmah evropskega pokala. ˝Ožbe je prvič nastopil na tako velikem tekmovanju. Udeležba je bila kakovostna, saj smo videli kar nekaj tekmovalk in tekmovalcev, ki se redno uvršajo med elitno deseterico na tekmah svetovnega pokala. Dejstvo je, da naš Ožbe tudi v tej močni konkurenci realno sodi višje, ampak tokrat ga je ˝izdala˝ trema. Vsi skupaj, tako on kot jaz, smo pridobili ogromno dragocenih izkušenj in te so naložba za prihodnost. Z dobrim delom, boljšo psihološko pripravo in nekaj športne sreče se bomo v prihodnje zagotovo veselili dobrih rezultatov,” je pred odhodom na zaključno slovesnost 3. zimskih Mladinskih olimpijskih iger povedal trener Miglar, ki se jutri že seli v Crans Montano. Tam bosta namreč konec tedna (25. in 26.1) na sporedu tekmi evropskega pokala v slopestylu in big airu. Na slednji bosta nastopila tudi naša B reprezentanta Kaja Verdnik in Max Kralj Kos. Oba štajerska deskarja, ki že imata izkušnje z nastopi na najvišjem nivoju (Verdnikova je nastopila tudi na OI 2018), si želita preboja v finale in uvrstitve med najboljših deset.

“Po skorajda dveh letih tekmovalnega premora zaradi poškodbe hrbta se vračam na tekme. Želim si vsaj med prvih deset! Tudi v nadaljevanju sezone bom tekmovala na tekmah evropskega pokala, v prihodnje pa se želim znova prebiti na tekme najvišje ravni˝ pravi Verdnikova. Pritrjuje ji tudi Kralj Kos, ˝Finale in nato deseterica ali celo peterica,˝ je optimističen Kralj Kos, ki se je v družbi Verdnikove odpravil proti Švici. Tam ju bo pričakal trener Miglar s katerim sta opravila večji del priprav, z ekipo in trenerjem Pristavcem pa sta trenirala tudi v ˝naj˝ evropskem halfpipu, v Laaxu.
