thisnewdayIn Syracuse.com's local entertainment feature this morning, #4 on entertainment editor Katrina Tulloch's list is Dana Fuchs who starred as "Sexy Sadie" in Julie Taymore's "Across the Universe." She'll be appearing this week at one of our downtown dining and entertainment venues, Funk 'n' Waffles.
Having dispensed with the credits, I've just gotta say that "Across the Universe" is one of my favorite movies of all time. Not only does it bring its central character, Jude, to Vietnam-era America on an unprecedented wave of words and music from the Beatles' songbook, beautifully performed, but it also gives us a credible reincarnation of Janis Joplin in the character of Fuchs's Sadie.
To follow, then, is the trailer for Julie Taymore's "Across the Universe" which, as always, is best viewed full-screen on YouTube where it was originally posted. And to that I can only add, how do you like THEM Funk 'n' Waffles?
Sorry but, if you know me at all, you know I had to say that, lol...
