I'm really rather surprised.<br /><br />I'm of two minds about <i>I Could Go On Singing</i>, as it seems clear through so much of it how little is acting and how much is Dirk Bogarde helping her make it through. On the other hand, the bravery of going through with, by all concerned, is astonishing.<br /><br />On a lighter note, someday when I have the energy I plan to write a play about Jenny Bowman and Jenny Stewart (Crawford in <i>Torch Song</i>) going out on the road together (in some chestnut like <i>Old Acquaintance</i>), or possibly teaming up with Helen Lawson. It could be like <i>Legends</i>, except for drag queens (and, presumably, not terrible).Muscatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04657061324487851341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7218985326921858943.post-73474094566135325342012-06-12T19:55:46.551-04:002012-06-12T19:55:46.551-04:00It's funny how often I feel the need to watch ...It's funny how often I feel the need to watch 'I Could Go On Singing'.

Her performance of Old Man River on that program was astonishingly moving.<br /><br />I agree that as long as The Wizard of Oz is shown or available which pretty assuredly will be always it will keep her current in popular culture. For many that will hopefully lead to checking out her other work since so much is readily available.<br /><br />Today in the states TCM is doing a 24 hour tribute of her films plus short subjects and specialty numbers featuring her, the only time I can recall an entire day being devoted to a single artist, from the dewy sweetness of 15 year old Judy to the brittle, seen it all sophisticate of I Could Go On Singing. <br /><br />A truly unique talent. People who are unaware of her don't know what they're missing.joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7218985326921858943.post-35937983966898702822012-06-10T18:48:05.405-04:002012-06-10T18:48:05.405-04:0024 more years of Liza?
