Midge’s elegant sophistication and Lenny’s suave seductive manner are a combination of perfection and Luke Kirby’s performance is just incredible and filled with magnetism. When I see Luke/Lenny though it makes me so sad thinking of the real Lenny Bruce and how his life turned out.
@@BrocksOnix956 Obviously you never had a loved one suffering from this: There is nothing to be glorified in drugs. They Kill people. Its such a shame they killed him.
Argh!!!! This scene is sublime. I keep coming back to it. It is just so so so so sexy. The direction, the music, the set...all setting up a couple who truly need no assistance when it comes to chemistry ❤
This scene is just so perfect, it's not just sexy it's pure art. The cinematography, the music choice, the position of both Lenny and Midge when they're just sitting there in the beginning, her arm in that line with the cigarette when it spins to look at her, it's absolutely perfect.
The way they look at each other is so intense it's making me physically uncomfortable, omg. I feel like I should leave the room and I'm not even in the room...
I must have watched this scene over 100 times, it's so erotic, both of them undressing each other with their eyes. They definitely had me convinced they are in lust 🔥🔥🔥 I totally adore these two characters - Excellent script writing and acting.
I know--I am proabably on my 59th rewatch and the "I didn't know how to tell you" line peirces my heart every.sing.time. I have never witnessed a scene so full of intese love and vulnerability. This. This is top tier.
The show stayed true to major events, so it was impossible for them to ever end up together. I'm just happy they had a good night together. Their relationship was so well-written.
Does anybody know what kind of dance they do? I am not sure if the song (till there was you) counts as Jazz Pop and if what they are dancing are jazz steps or simple box steps or something else. Anybody have an idea?
What irritates me about this scene... the singer and the guitarist move through the room very freely. How do they handle the cables without anyone tripping over them?
I have had to let it go. I have said the same thing for years. I've just finally had to ignore it and accept the scene for the otherwise perfection that it is.
They trained/practiced. It's like all the Motown artists on Ed Sullivan or Bandstand. They do the choreography without tripping on the mics. Unless you meant the audience, not the performers.
