A sad, very sad riff on the opening song from the musical, “Oklahoma.” Yeah, I had a serious crush on Gordon MacGrae who played Curly in the movie version.<\/h5>\n
“We’re watchin’ two movies in Leawood. We’re watchin’ two movies in Leawood. There’s popcorn a-plenty and much to imbibe…..just don’t let Jim’s snoring disturb this great vibe!”<\/em> (We love ‘ya, Jim! \"\")<\/h5>\n
It’s the much beloved Two-Fer Movie Night<\/em><\/strong> at Sam and Jim’s in Leawood!\u00a0 Two movies will be shown simultaneously in their spacious residence and you can choose which one appeals to you. Now showing downstairs is the movie Great Freedom. This 2021 drama film won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival and other international awards. It takes place in post-war Germany. A gay man, Hans, played by actor Franz Rogowski is jailed for his homosexuality and is repeatedly imprisoned for his “crimes.”\u00a0 As Hans returns to prison he develops an unlikely bond with his cellmate Viktor, a convicted murderer.\u00a0 What begins as revulsion by Viktor blossoms over time into something more tender.\u00a0 This film is not rated but contains graphic male nudity, strong sexual content, graphic drug use and suicide. The film has a 7.5 IMDB rating and has a high score of 97%\/91% critic\/audience rating with Fresh Tomatoes! The film is in German with English subtitles. Our collective thanks to Jim Kogel and Larry Harmon for this fine recommendation.<\/h5>\n
Now for the upstairs flick, well, you’ll have to wait a bit until someone tells me what it is. I’m always the last to know. So, stay tuned!<\/h5>\n
Our hosts graciously provide popcorn, a few nibbles, water and ice tea so BYOB if you’re so inclined. Movie night is a fun evening so stay healthy, guys, and join us!<\/h5>\n
