I like the music and that sort of singing and how it is the film and it holds your attention. I can't watch more because I am going to bed but I could easily watch it one night all the way through I think.
When I realized what the film was about, it was the talent of the acting that kept me engrossed. the enormous room was the same for me. Every character became part of my heart and soul. I've read it often, but not recently. I wonder if I could, now.
You will never fell the same about Gypsies if you watch this film.
ReplyDeleteI mean feel the same.

DeleteYes, I forgot to say that it is a full-length film.
DeleteOne to watch after nights me thinks
ReplyDeleteI did watch it through. Mesmerizing. I've felt this way about the wanderers since I first knew them, in the Enormous Room, in college.
ReplyDeleteIt is mesmerising. (That's not a spelling correction - my English spell check insists on it). Those young boy singers - the talent!
DeleteIs The Enormous Room a film?
Deletee e cummings the enormous room, an autobiography. There may be a film, but i doubt i could bear to watch it

DeleteIf you are talking about the above film, they were not actors.
DeleteI know. That's why I couldn't quit looking.
DeleteA magnificent film, Tom - thank you.
ReplyDeleteHave you read "The Stopping Places" by Damian LeBas? (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40096074-the-stopping-places)
A delightful book.
I heard him reading it when it was serialised on R4. Very interesting. All those horses.
DeleteThanks for reminding me Tom. I've always loved that film.
ReplyDeleteI saw it for the first time last night. I will watch it again I think.
DeleteBeautiful stuff but should come with a Health Warning - do not start watching this if you wish to go to the loo!
ReplyDeleteI paused it a couple of times myself, Weave.
DeleteThank you for putting this up Tom Mrs H and I thoroughly enjoyed the film of these great musical people.
ReplyDeleteWell worth watching, eh? It is an enriching experience.
