neutral · AI labelView post →Burlesque, starring Cher and Christina Aguilera, is a far better movie about style and power than The Devil Wears Prada. And Stanley Tucci is just as good in it.
positive · AI labelView post →It's movie night, I'm showing Lucas Burlesque, and we're sticking with silly pictures.
neutral · AI labelView post →Charlie Chaplin and Edna Purviance played the climactic murder in CARMEN straight and then bounced up for a goofy redo in BURLESQUE ON CARMEN, Chaplin's last film for Essanay and the subject of a bitter lawsuit.
neutral · AI labelView post →did we know about Dianna’s cameo in a showgirl film? bc we just watched Burlesque and I was gagged to see her pop up in the third act
neutral · AI labelView post →OiG Sunday Confession I just watched Burlesque for the first time (15 years past due) and the through line for Stanley Tucci from here to The Devil Wears Prada is straight and clear. I’m all in for anything with him in it. Has he ever made a bad film? On a side note 🎵 I think I missed my calling 💋
positive · AI labelView post →I have always loved Burlesque, a perfect film about air rights, and it’s so gratifying that Cher has embraced the best song in the movie as her anthem. (It was also the 11 o’clock number in The Cher Show, but seeing it in print makes it even more real.)

Re-visited the only film loosely adapting John Willie's bondage comics, as well as UK milestones "Burlesque Queen"(1961) & "Nude Woman by Waterfall" (1920) #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd #filmsky 📽️🍿
neutral · AI labelView post →One bio of Chaplin's claimed that he couldn't have written BURLESQUE himself because he wasn't familiar enough with the opera. He didn't need to be. He just needed a movie ticket. Edna probably saw it too.

neutral · AI labelView post →Charlie Chaplin liked DeMille's movie, clearly, because his BURLESQUE ON CARMEN (1915) spoofed it scene-for-scene (the adaptation of the novel had been penned by William de Mille). Edna Purviance clearly had a blast as the wicked Carmen.

positive · AI labelView post →The only movie in which Barbara Stanwyck's natural singing voice was not overdubbed is Lady of Burlesque, and it's a blast of a song: Take It Off the E String, Play It on the G String by Sammy Cahn. #BallofFire #TCMParty youtu.be/I-e9dPnFL34?...

positive · AI labelView post →"Like the movie?" No. Burlesque is not like the movie. Not even a little. I mean, I guess the movie had the performances happen on a stage, and there was music involved, but other than that... No.

I picked MURDER AT THE WINDMILL (aka Mystery at the Burlesque) principally due to the 3rd Doctor, Jon Pertwee being one of the chief cast members. He & his boss are called to London's Windmill theatre when an audience member is murdered mid-show. #filmsky

positive · AI labelView post →Lady of Burlesque isn’t a horror film, I mistakenly thought it was one when I suggested it. But I’ve watched it since and it’s a good time nonetheless. Can’t go wrong with a movie based on a novel called the G-string murders #frightclub

Her smart, sassy Dixie - plus her female co-stars, pack quite a proto-feminist punch in solving several crimes. Michael O’Shea happily tags along for the fun. #moviesky #feministsky

I think Burlesque is a much better movie. The acting, the dancing, the music, even the plot, all of it. What do you think?
