Today’s special matinee is a double-feature from auteur Allan Showalter: “Allison Crowe, The Movies, & Zack Snyder” @
https://allanshowalter.com/2020/09/20/allison-crowe-the-movies-zack-snyder/ together with “Zack Snyder & His Personal Connection to Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah” @
Of the Crowecentric episode, blogmeister Showalter, the “heavy duty reader, sporadic scribbler, perpetual cynic, successful shrink, hard-core dilettante, and devotedly irreverent Leonard Cohen fan” aka DrHGuy, notes:
“Ongoing readers may recall that Snyder originally planned to use Allison’s cover of Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah in Watchmen but opted for Leonard’s own rendition of the now iconic hymn because hers was considered ‘too beautiful.’ Find out more about that and what that superhero sex scene looks and sounds like with Allison’s version of Hallelujah as the soundtrack. And, read about Allison’s appearance as a singer in a pub in the Cassidy Inn in Nanaimo, that served as a bar for Alaskan loggers in Man Of Steel.”
It’s a fine time to take the soap out of the microwave, and ready the popcorn – as you like it! Up, up, and away!
