Every time I have seen Hadestown - on stage or in the movie theater - people gasp when Orpheus turns around. I just love how it's so old and yet everyone is still always hoping that this time

Hadestown really did just set the standard for all proshots going forward. "The cinematography of this stage production was extraordinary" is a wild sentence but completely true. This is the rubric all future proshots should be held to.

There are some characters where giving them therapy and cleaning them up is the fanfiction equivalent of buying antique furniture and painting it white

hadestown proshot was MAGNIFICENT. truly one of the best shot recordings i've ever seen of a play or musical - some of the framing choices were absolutely beautiful.

actually funniest part of this movie going experience was that i think whoever decides what trailers go in front of each movie clearly had NO idea what to preview to an audience dedicated enough to go to a musical proshot of a greek myth retelling. will they like soft romance? probably. will they like indie art films? sure okay. will they like the offbeat movie about a sexual dominatrix? uhhh. why not. what about victorian psycho, a movie that looks to be about a woman being weird and sexual and bloodthirsty in the victorian era. does that sound like a movie to interest the hadestown demographic?

and if i said nolan's odyssey starring no greek actors and with no recognizable aspects of greek culture or involvement by greeks, is the direct legacy of white supremacist colonialism that treated ancient greece as not just the pinnacle of ancient culture, but of an artificially created "european" culture, which white western europeans and their settler descendants, as the new pinnacle of culture, were the sole spiritual inheritors of.
