unlabelledView post →You know what movie that doesn't need a sequel would stand an awesome sequel? THE FABULOUS BAKER BOYS. The culture has changed so much, Seattle has changed so much, and no one who ever saw Michelle Pfeiffer on that piano has forgotten it
unlabelledView post →Even though Seattle has changed SO MUCH over the past 36 years, still pretty cool to rewatch THE FABULOUS BAKER BOYS and realize you, not only recognize every neighborhood and location, but that you could go find them again right now if you needed to. Anyhow, best shot in Seattle movie? I say yes.
unlabelledView post →Did the math and it looks like you'll need to start THE FABULOUS BAKER BOYS at 10:57:50 so it's midnight at the same time as the movie (I think different releases have different logos, so give or take a few seconds on this).
unlabelledView post →“The Fabulous Baker Boys” is on TV tonight. I remember seeing it in the cinema, thinking how stunning & effortlessly cool Michelle Pfeiffer was. She still is. She didn’t win the Oscar that year which was a travesty. The film soundtrack is brilliant, I bought it on cassette & played it non stop.
unlabelledView post →I enjoyed this Letterboxd review of Train Dreams. Back in the day, films and TV shows, like The Fabulous Baker Boys and Northern Exposure, were made in WA (and not Canada). Great to see filmmakers, namely Clint Bentley, helping to revive this tradition, now that there's more incentive to do so.

For example, last year, 'The Fabulous Baker Boys' was shown at the festival and premiered on the channel later in July 2025. #TCMParty

Bogie & his buddies stumble upon a Nazi plot in All Through the Night...the movie has a great cast. The Fabulous Baker Boys is not one of my favorite movies, but it's OK.

unlabelledView post →"The Fabulous Baker Boys" is a directionless meander through the flawed lives of the central characters Jack and Frank and it is occasioned by their decision to freshen up their cheesy and jaded cocktail lounge act by introducing a sultry female singer. The film effortlessly captures the quiet desperation of the eternally small time careers of the Baker boys as they monotonously tour around a ceaseless succession of out of the way second rate venues. They are trapped in such places and like so…

The latter man is the grown up of the pair, married with kids and he has what passes for the business head between them. The former is more of a loose cannon attached only to his brother and his dog. Their doldrums seem set to consign them to the musical dustbin until they…
