Prom Night (1980)

In today's review, I find drama and murder clash with the most important night of a seniors life. As I attempt a #positive review of the 1980 slasher Prom Night #LeslieNielsen #JamieLeeCurtis #DebbieGreenfield #CaseyStevens #BrockSimpson #EddieBenton

Childhood can be challenging on its own, yet if you can survive the perils of youthful naïvety, you get a dose of the drama and danger that is present in your adult years. These scars, and traumas can stick with of, moulding us into the people that we are today, if we make it out that is. In 1980, as the slashers started to pick up steam, a high school in Canada dealt with a buried secret, and a…

Ava Gardner and David Niven, The Little Hut, 1957

"The point is, my darling, is that your face was the most beautiful in Hollywood and any man would want to kiss it." "You did okay," Ava reminded him, 'you got the most beautiful girl in Hollywood - Rita." 'No, no, Ava, David protested. 'You were the most beautiful girl in Hollywood. I settled for the second most beautiful girl in Hollywood which was Rita.' That made Ava laugh more and she hit his shoulder and said, 'You can stop the sweet talk now'. A few weeks after that memorable dinner with David and Ava, I reminded him what he had said about Ava being the most beautiful girl in Hollywood and Rita being the second, and he said, 'I meant it, old bean. Ava was the most beautiful girl in Hollywood. And Rita was a close second.' David always carried a torch for Ava, which didn't surprise me. Even in middle age, when I first knew her, she was still radiantly stunning and at times even breathtaking.

Interesting to learn that minor Justice League members are going to be in this, but I hope they don’t OVERSHADOW the movie.

Let Superman star SUPERMAN. I’m fine with these characters playing a minor role, maybe even helping Superman fight the big bad, but don’t let the star do most of the heavy lifting.

I NEVER liked the word 'Nice' either...

“Nice is a four letter word?”...... it's such an insipid word... so bland, dull and twee! I have always been insulted when called it myself. I get why he responded this way.... he's a demon.... can you imagine how insulted he felt... if I a mere human feels insulted by the word Nice!

I made this move once, not quite so violently though. I pushed Adam Ant against the wall when he was getting panicky before going onstage for his first/ opening night of the Joe Orton play of Funeral Games 1996. I totally understood why, because I got stagefright the night The Lindsay Kemp Company's Cinderella opened at Sadlers Wells the year before .I had toured Italy and Spain no stage fright... but London and knowing Adam and other friends were out there...arrghh! Adam suddenly lost the plot, and said he couldn't go onstage, and the easiest thing to do was hold him in place against a wall, and talk him down. It worked, after he had done the quick change after his first scene , he turned around and gave me a kiss, then saying Thank you. I guess both he and I would be accused of inappropriate behaviour these days... I liked my kiss from him... and he was happy to get onstage... can you imagine if he hadn't gone onstage...?

Good Omens always feels like it was in my head all along..... as it activates so many thoughts and memories....

Makes me wonder what Good Omens 3 will trigger in my memory bank?

Funeral Games The Drill Hall, London 1996.

Not my programme, I never was one for collecting autographs in my career in Theatre.

I also got to work with Sylvester McCoy, my 2nd version of The Doctor...( the first was Colin Baker when he played Captain Hook.) 1989/90 at Brighton Dome.

Colour photo ....Kinny Gardner and me, up my stairs. Sadlers Wells dress rehearsal. Photo Richard Haughton.

Everyone went onstage in the Kemp company, my main job was Associate Designer and Costume Supervisor.

Still can not believe I was part of the same theatrical company David Bowie was once part of... but Lindsay Kemp broadened his interests, as he did with anyone who became part of the company. Bowie often said Lindsay was the reason he started it all.

The Lindsay Kemp Company was a very gay/queer company. The majority of the performers were . A few of us were straight. The company was around before it was even legal to be gay in the UK... which it was from 1967. Many of the themes were about fluid genders. The show Flowers was based on Jean Genet's book Our Lady of the Flowers. JG was in and out of prison for being gay.

Happy World Theatre Day!

"Run to Daylight" WIP snippet

“Why do you love sports so much?”

“‘Cos I’m a dumb jock,” Guy laughs, bunting the question away. “Plus there’s beer. And it’s easier than readin’ books and shit.”

“Shut up,” Kyle laughs, shakes his head.

It’s about dinnertime, and he wonders what he has in the fridge or if Kyle might want to get something in a bit except he’s probably not hungry after all the beer and hotdogs. 

“I dunno. I guess it’s just. When everything else in my life was shit, sports seemed like the real thing. Like the only real thing in a world of bullshit.”

Kyle hums. “It’s weird, I mean. I always thought the opposite, to be honest. Everyone cared so much about the football team, or how the basketball team was doing, and just seemed like a distraction from…from actual life. From more important things.”

Guy’s heard this spiel a million times. Mostly from chicks.

Kyle clears his throat. “I mean I--I’m not saying I’m right. It just seemed like everyone always acted like winning on Friday night was like, it’d be the end of the world if the guys lost. But I mean…I didn’t get it. It’s just--it’s literally just a game.”

“And paintin’ pictures, what’s that?” Guy almost tries not to sound too dickish.

Kyle sighs, rolls his eyes, looks away. Oh, but there’s an edge there. Something old. “I don’t think you’d understand what…what that gave me. Art. What it still gives me. It’s making something…something meaningful out of,” Kyle gestures in the air. “Out of what was meaningless.”

Guy knows if this was a movie, he’d be the asshole. Well this ain’t a fuckin’ movie.

“And the football team, just a bunch of morons tossin’ a ball back and forth?”

“That’s not what I said!”

“It’s what you meant.”

“No it’s not--”

“Listen, you say it’s only a game. And you’re right but you’re wrong too.”

There’s a long pause. They’ve never really dug into this truth between them. The gulf of difference. The dumb jock and the sensitive artist thing. Kyle tilts his head at Guy, giving him his full attention. “So tell me.”

“You can’t just put it down on a--on like a postcard. It’s…you gotta see it, right?”

“Sure. Like coming to this game? Green grass and red dirt and, and all that.” 

Guy shakes his head, it’s not what he means, he hates trying to say what he means. 

“It’s more like…it’s Michael Jordan’s jump shot.”

Kyle stares back blankly.

“David Beckham’s corner kick. Joe Montana and Jerry Rice on a Sunday. And it’s--it’s Bob Gibson 1.12 ERA and refusing to shake Joe Torre’s hand ‘cos it’s war and not a picnic. It’s Zizu’s head and Materazzi’s big mouth. It’s Curt Schilling’s bloody sock. It’s Derek Redmond limping to the finish line and Bronko Nagurski crawling to the end zone. It’s a routine ground ball rolling under Bill Buckner’s glove and Steven Gerrard slippin’ on the grass. It’s Barry Bonds’s hat size and Pete Rose’s bookie.” 

Guy doesn’t know how else to say it. It’s just all of it. It’s life but boiled down to the stuff you need. Forget tax returns and the DMV. Just good guys and bad guys. Pure love, pure hatred. Grief, agony, pain you wouldn’t believe. Outrageous joy. Selfishness, sacrifice. Blood, sweat, tears. War. Love to last a lifetime. 

“It’s everything. All of it. It’s all there. On a pitch, or a diamond, or a gridiron. Just…everything. Waitin’ on a whistle.”

“Wow.”

“Fuck off.”

“No, really!” Kyle laughs, clasping Guy’s forearm. “I mean I don’t know who any of those people are--”

“You fucking know David Beckham--”

Kyle laughs, looking away with his eyebrows raised, his dimples deep, his cheeks a little pinker. He looks so good in the ballpark lights, they should wash him out, but they can’t. “Yeah, I know David Beckham.”
