keryxDid y'all know Movin' Out is in fact a ballet set to a Billy Joel cover band?
I mean, I knew about the Twyla Tharp and was expecting balletic, but I wasn't expecting a total lack of speaking or singing by the - well, one hesitates to call them 'actors' so, uh... - cast. Two hours of ballet to a Billy Joel cover band! With cliches about the sixties and Vietnam and stuff.
And, um... it was really quite good. I was surprisingly moved.
Shut up. I liked it.
