	3:00pm Jeff Ash: Hello from Wisconsin!
	3:01pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Greetings, Larry!
	3:01pm Funky16Corners: Hopey! Jeff!
	🥁 3:01pm Brian in UK: Settle down in your seats and enjoy the sounds of cinematic joy.
	3:01pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi everyone
	3:02pm Funky16Corners: Brian! Matt!
	3:02pm SquigY0: holy crap. i feel like we were all just here!
	3:02pm Funky16Corners: SquigYO!
	3:02pm SquigY0: Larry!!!!
	🥁 3:03pm dutchtheo: Ciao, Larry and cinematics, already om of my favs!
	3:03pm Funky16Corners: Theo!
	🥁 3:04pm Yvang: Zampano! Hi everyone!
	3:04pm Really Lisa: Hi Larry, all. I usually listen, but had to jump on to type 'La Strada 💖'
	3:04pm Matt from New Orleans: Sounds like we lost you
	3:05pm Funky16Corners: Yvang!
	🥁 3:05pm Yvang: The stream took over!
	3:05pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Did the auto stream kick in?
	3:05pm Funky16Corners: I think I'm back.Not sure whaty happened
	3:05pm Matt from New Orleans: Back
	3:05pm Erica: The stream is acting up again.
	3:05pm Funky16Corners: Hey Erica!
	🥁 3:05pm Yvang: Nino is back!
	🥁 3:05pm Brian in UK: An interesting little diversion there.
	3:11pm Matt from New Orleans: Two Fellini/Massina collabs to start
	3:12pm Funky16Corners: They were married
	3:12pm Funky16Corners: Masina and Fellini
	3:13pm Funky16Corners: This is a beautiful movie, too. Fellini's first color feature
	3:17pm Matt from New Orleans: I’ve seen them both on the big screen. Probably one of the biggest things I’ve missed since I moved down here is the plethora of repertory cinema options in NYC. DVDs/Blu-ray/streaming/illegal downloads are great but sitting in a dark theater is one of my favorite things to do. Unfortunately moviegoing in New Orleans is sorely lacking.
	3:18pm Funky16Corners: Yes indeed. Seeing these movies on the big screen makes a difference. Unfortunately art houses are closing all over the place due to covid. We lost two locally
	3:22pm Matt from New Orleans: Big Tati fan here as well
	3:24pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Love Monsieur Hulot.
	3:25pm Funky16Corners: Tati kind of blows my mind because he's known as a physical comedian, but he was a brilliant filmmaker as well. The imagery in his films is remarkable.
	3:26pm Funky16Corners: I have the Criterion Collection Complete Tati set. It's incredible, lots of extras
	3:27pm Funky16Corners: The music to his films is kind of hard to find. The soundtracks didn't get individual releases (that I know of) and the music is collected on a couple of CDs
	3:27pm Matt from New Orleans: Me too. Agreed.
	3:30pm doctorjazz: Hello, hello, hello.
	3:31pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doc!
	3:32pm Funky16Corners: This reprise of the theme is lifted directly from the soundtrack of the film
	3:32pm Matt from New Orleans: I saw the Parade soundtrack on LP in Japan in the early 2000s but didn’t buy it as it was expensive and I wasn’t heading home right after I visited Japan. It was a relatively recent release at the time on a Japanese label.
	3:33pm Funky16Corners: If anyone was going to put these out, it'd have to be the Japanese. In fact one of the Tati soundtrack collections is a Japanese release
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: IMDB says that the composer for Parade was Charles Dumont (who I'm not familiar with), The two Tati soundtrack collections I have omit Parade
	3:41pm Hopey Sockmonkey: These are all wonderful!
	3:42pm Funky16Corners: If you haven't seen the movies you should. Really special stuff.
	3:42pm Funky16Corners: Play Time is especially remarkable. Just a brilliant piece of work
	3:43pm Erica: Very wonderful indeed Hopey.
	3:44pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Hey Larry & Testifiers! Late, but better late than never....
	3:44pm Funky16Corners: Photocopy!
	3:45pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Testifiers. Feel like I'm back at the Bleeker Cinema circa 1980!
	3:45pm Funky16Corners: Kevin!
	3:47pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Also, the music choices are in connection with films (yes, 35mm!) I have recently seen - Amarcord and Monsieur Hulot's Holiday, the former this October and the latter one just a few days ago in fact.
	3:47pm Funky16Corners: Well, that works out nicely!
	3:57pm Funky16Corners: I apologize if this is turning into Film Theory 101. I should have cued up the actual movies somewhere so you could all watch along with the music
	4:02pm Funky16Corners: This theme is called 'Cadillac', you'll hear it again in the pieces from 8 1/2.
	4:02pm Funky16Corners: I first heard it done by Combustible Edison
	4:03pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: La Dolce Vita - another "recent" watch - late last year or early this year, can't remember - but not from film but some digital format, though also in a cinema. What surprised me was that I did NOT like it that much, the younger me did though, previous to this cinema screening I saw it twice from an off-air VHS. Maybe I am a snob who does not like digital movie remasters, or just more stupid while getting older...
	4:04pm Funky16Corners: I think between La Dolce Vita (which is more famous) and 8 1/2 (which is a work of genius, maybe one of the best movies ever made) there's a huge gap
	4:05pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: @3:57 Funky16Corners: no apologies necessary methinks. This show rocks, if you can say that. In the cas of La Dolce Vita I love the music, I guess a lot more than the movie itself.
	4:05pm Funky16Corners: I don't find my way back to rewatching LDV as much as 8 1/2 which I will always stop to watch
	4:07pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Well, as there seem to be huge gaps in my knowledge of movies, music, books etc. - I gotta admit I have yet to see 8 1/2!
	4:08pm Funky16Corners: Set aside some time an watch it. An absolutely brilliant movie in the telling/filming/acting/music.
	4:08pm Funky16Corners: I aid to someone the other day that 8 1/2 is the best looking black and white film I know of (except maybe Kurosawa's Rashomon)
	4:08pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Will do!
	4:09pm Funky16Corners: It's like I never knew that there were so many subtle shades of gray and stark blacks and whites
	4:09pm Phillippe Bastille: howdy
	4:09pm Funky16Corners: Phillippe!
	🥁 4:13pm Brian in UK: Cinematographers rule.
	4:13pm Funky16Corners: I got a Bluray player for my birthday this year and bought a bunch of stuff I didn't have on DVD. Just watched Kwaidan on Bluray and it was amazing.
	4:14pm SquigY0: oh nooooo too early!! :D
	4:14pm Erica: Christmas can can.
	4:15pm Funky16Corners: Now I'm trying to remember the context of Jingle Bells in La Dolce Vita
	4:16pm Funky16Corners: Rota uses an electronic keyboard on these soundtracks that has a very unique sound. I wish I knew what it was.
	4:19pm Little Danny: Hi Larry, hi all
	4:19pm Funky16Corners: Hey Danny!
	4:20pm Matt from New Orleans: Jingle Bells was in the last section at the villa. I can’t recall the context.
	4:21pm Funky16Corners: Does this part sound familiar??
	4:22pm Erica: Larry's old background theme.
	4:22pm SquigY0: shouldn't you be talking right now? :P
	4:23pm Funky16Corners: Yup!
	4:25pm Funky16Corners: Here's 'Cadillac' again
	4:30pm SquigY0: runs around the room in circles
	4:31pm Funky16Corners: LOL!
	4:31pm Funky16Corners: It's like in the Simpsons where Bart steals Grandpa's false teeth and flies around the room on the ceiling fan
	4:33pm Erica: Poor Grandpa.
	4:39pm SquigY0: mmm dolce de leche
	4:44pm SquigY0: great movie though!
	4:45pm Funky16Corners: Yes! I run hot and cold on Spielberg, but I like this one a lot
	4:45pm Matt from New Orleans: I remember enjoying the soundtrack to this film when I saw it in the theater. Have never seen it since.
	4:46pm Funky16Corners: It caught my ear while watching the film, too. When I eventually bought it I ended up with one of those Academy Awards CDs they send out to voters
	4:49pm Funky16Corners: I think we may run a little but over today...
	4:50pm Matt from New Orleans: When I saw 2002, I was surprised but then again Leo was still relatively young and playing a younger character so it makes sense.
	4:51pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, it's like the last 20 years have gone by in the blink of an eye
	4:54pm Matt from New Orleans: Thanks Larry. It was nice to revisit these soundtracks.
	4:55pm Funky16Corners: My pleasure!
	4:57pm Photocopy Cha Cha 2000: Gotta thank you Larry for an amazing show - as I turned up late gotta check the first 40 minutes from the archive! good night!
	🥁 4:57pm dutchtheo: Thanks, Larry!
	4:58pm Erica: Thank you Larry for a relaxing, cinematic show.
	4:59pm SquigY0: Thanks Larry for quite a different change of pace!
	4:59pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Erica! Theo! Photocopy!
	5:00pm Listener Scott: Just checking in to say thanks, I enjoyed the show
	5:00pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Scott!
	🥁 5:00pm Yvang: Thanks, Larry!
	5:01pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Yvang!
