A NOSTALGIC RIDE INTO THE MAKING OF THIS WONDERFUL FILM
10 April 2021
If you're a JCS fan, you will love this. Although it doesn't include songs from the film (you can play that anytime you want), it's a close-up look at the making of the film and what it meant to them. Most of all, it's great to see everyone together again. Ted Neeley, Yvonne Elliman, Bob Bingham, Larry Marshall, Kurt Yaghijian, Josh Mostel and the late great Barry Dennen. You can feel the love there is among these people, and Carl Anderson is with them in spirit as they have his picture during the Q&A prominent for all to remember him, and a segment honoring him towards the end. Most of all, the words from Norman Jewison and the cast telling us stories of the making of the movie caps this film with wonderful tales. No doubt Jewison is a genius. Yvonne Elliman graces us with a little of her beautiful voice, still strong and vibrant after all these years, and the talented Ted Neeley pulls it all together with just his presence and his unbounding love for all, and his appreciation for the film that defined his career. This is a must see for lovers of music and film.
