We are a little upset we didn’t know about this BRILLIANT concert happening this weekend in Los Angeles, CA at the Disney Concert Hall- Malcolm McDowell is hosting three nights of the scores of Stanley Kubrick’s films. HOW PERFECT IS THAT?! McDowell, of course, starred in Kubrick’s adaptation of A Clockwork Orange as Alex DeLarge, Droog extraordinaire. Just […]

Sometimes a piece of art- film, music, stage craft – comes along at the right time in a person’s life to etch a mark on the soul. For >this< writer, that’s been Hedwig and the Angry Inch and writer-director-performer John Cameron Mitchell. Originally created as a stage show by John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask, the live piece soon […]

I am heartbroken to write this, but Amazon Studios will not be ordered additional seasons of Mozart In The Jungle.  The comedy series has brought tremendous crescendos across it’s four seasons, and I am so very sad to see it go. Based on Blair Tindall’s memoir “Mozart In The Jungle: Sex, Drugs, and Classical Music”, the series […]

Well, this may or may not be the very last episode of Amazon Studios Mozart In The Jungle we ever get.  Please oh PLEASE don’t let that be the case, because I selfishly don’t want this show to end. We’ve had some serious sh*t happen this season- breakups and robot destruction, a motorcycle in an orchestra […]

I am still not ok after Mozart In the Jungle season 4 episode 8, “Ichi Go Ichi E”. No, seriously, it messed me up in ways I didn’t think possible this side of LOST or Battlestar Galactica. After so long, loving and longing for these characters to find that they really do complete what the other needs, they go […]

Season 4 of Mozart In The Jungle has brought in some new faces, […]

This season of Amazon Studio’s Mozart In The Jungle has been pretty great, and we’re almost done watching our way through the 4th season of the show. In s4e6 “Domo Arigato”, Hailey (Lola Kirke), Rodrigo (Gael Garcia Bernal), Thomas (Malcolm McDowell), and Gloria (Bernadette Peters) headed to Japan for the Fukumoto conducting competition.  While there, Rodrigo […]

We’ve made the halfway point in our Mozart In The Jungle season 4 discussion, and we’ve got five episodes to go before finishing out the Amazon Studios original series.  We’re keeping our fingers crossed that this won’t be it for the show. In s4e5 “The Coach”, Rodrigo’s (Gael Garcia Bernal) second ghostly mentor Liberace abandoned him because […]

Amazon Original series Mozart In The Jungle continues to be a fabulous mix of noteworthy writing, and top notch performances from it’s award winning cast.  We’ve been marathoning the newest season (it’s 4th), and delighting in the story. In s4e4 “An Honest Ghost”, it seemed like Rodrigo (Gael Garcia Bernal) had lost his spectre mentor Mozart […]
