  Ballet 1995

  ★★ Watched 20 Mar 2025

  I dunno, Fred. To take a notoriously merciless art form and whittle the process down to a fun summer vacay? If it walks like an ABT puff piece and it quacks like an ABT puff piece…

  You just know this is what Nieman Marcus thought they were getting.

  A script that knows its mic drops and gives them just an extra second to breathe. It’s a blatant enough tell to let the self-importance sneak in and the integrity out.

  One big performative hand-wring.

  Sorry, it bad.

  Bong, you’ve got a whole cauldron of slapstick and pathos sitting here. Things yr good at! Why are you running away from ‘em and into the arms of broad side of a barn satire and the Drama School of Loud Noises?

  Goodbye, Dragon Inn 2003

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 02 Aug 2024

  The fun game with Goodbye, Dragon Inn isn’t who is a ghost, but who isn’t?

  We come to this place… and leave a small piece of us behind each time.
