Off Broadway, Dreams of Flying Dreams of Falling has a superb cast, but it is a very strange, unbelievable play. Two wealthy, weird families attend a dinner and behave badly, while wild geese, and one of the fathers die. 
 
 
Motherhood Out Loud is a series of sketches about bringing babies into the world with a cast of four fine actors, and the opening night party took place at 48 Lounge with guests like A. R. Gurney and Elizabeth Wilson.
 
Jewels, at the New York City Ballet, is one of Balanchine's most beautiful ballets. Three sections represent emeralds, rubies and diamonds, with music by Faure, Stravinsky and Tschaikovsky. Maria Kowroski and Charles Askegard excelled in the final section, and Teresa Reichlen was outstanding in Rubies. Another splendid performance by our magnificent home company. 
 
The Stage Directors and Choreographers Foundation ((SDCF) presented the Mr. Abbott Award to George C. Wolfe at the Edison Ballroom. It was another grand evening. Among the many guests were Bobby Cannavale, Ellen Barkin, S. Epatha Merkerson, Jeffrey Wright and Norm Lewis. 
 
The 1st Irish Festival for Irish playwrights took place at Papillon Bistro & Bar, and Bogboy won three of the awards. George C. Heslin, Artistic Director of the Origin Theatre Company was the host and Gabriel Byrne attended.
 
Former Governor David Paterson was among the guests at the Children's Rights Sixth Annual Benefit honoring Douglas Durst at the Plaza Hotel.
 
A Pre-Gala Cocktail Reception was held for Career Transition for Dancers 26th Anniversary Jubilee A Halloween Thriller at the home of Anka K.Palitz on Fifth Avenue. Among the guests,were honoree Michele Riggi, Michelle Herbert, Anne Marie D'Angelo and Lynn Cohen.
 
Barbara Ligeti hosted a party for William Kennedy and his book Chango's Beads and Two Toned Shoes at Trattoria Dopo Teatro.
 
Angelica Page received her portrait for Fame-Wall at Hurley's. Dale Badway introduced her after performing, and then introducied other Broadway performers, who also regaled the many guests with a song. It was an entertaining evening.
 
Seven gorgeous calendar girls appeared in person to sign the 2012 Hooters Calendar at Hooters in Manhattan. Supermodel Roshumba Williams was present to congratulate the lovely ladies.

The new cast of Love, Loss, and What I Wore celebrated the second year anniversary of the show at B. Smith's Restaurant. Many of the previous cast members were present to enjoy the party along with the new cast member La La Anthony's husband, basketball star Carmelo Anthony. Another great evening.

 

 
 

 
 
 

 
 

 

I saw three films of Velvet Bullets and Steel Kisses: Celebrating the Nikkatsu Centennial, part of the NYFF, which will be shown from October 1-16 at Elinor Bunin Film Center. Season of the Sun, by Takumi Furukawa, 1956, is a tragic love story. It captures the rebellion of youth in modern day Japan. The influence of western music makes it seem like an American bobby-sox film of that period. Gate of Flesh, by Seijun Suzuki, 1964, takes place immediately after World War II. We see the devastation of Japan, and the fight for survival by its inhabitants. A group of prostitutes form a gang to protect themselves, but their bond falls apart when a wounded criminal seeks refuge in their home among the bombed out ruins. The star Shishido Joe was present to tell the audience about the making of the film. The World of Geisha, by Tatsumi Kumahiro, 1973, is about geishas at the turn of the twentieth century. We see how they are trained to entertain their clients. It is quite erotic and sensual, and contains much nudity.


A Dangerous Method
, by David Cronenberg, 2011 France/Ireland/UK/Germany/Canada, is an intelligent, well acted film about Carl Jung (Michael Fassbender), and his relationship with Sigmund Freud (Viggo Mortensen) in the early days of psychoanalysis, with a brilliant performance by Keira Knightley as Jung's patient Sabine Spielrein. I recommend this film highly. Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory, by Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky, 2011, USA, is an excellent documentary about the miscarriage of justice in Arkansas with the "West Memphis Three". It is an impressive achievement which resulted in their release after eighteen years in prison. Again I recommend this film highly.

 
Martha Marcy May Marlene, by Sean Durkin, 2011, USA, is a about a young woman (Elizabeth Olson), who flees from a cult to the home of her sister (Sarah Paulson) and brother-in-law (Hugh Dancy). She is so damaged mentally, that many problems arise. The acting is first rate, and Olson gives a splendid performance. A Q & A followed the screening with Durkin and Olson. The Kid With a Bike, by Jean-Pierre Dardenne and Luc Dardenne, 2011, Belgium/France, is about an 11-year-old boy living in a children's home  (a remarkable performance by Thomas Doret), who searches for his father, who abandoned him. He meets a kind hairdresser (Cecile de France), who allows him to stay with her on weekends as a foster mother. The troubled youth causes many problems for everyone around him, but the film ends on a hopeful note. Shame, by Steve McQueen, 2011, UK, is a tale about a young man (Michael Fassbender) who is addicted to sex. It takes place in New York City, where he lives alone in a small, modern apartment, having impersonal sex, with prostitutes, occasional pickups, at brothels and gay men's club. Problems arise for him, when his disturbed sister (Carey Mulligan) moves in with him. The film features lots of nudity and simulated sex acts. A Q &A followed the screening with the director and the star. All three films are impressive.
