Viewing Notes
Went down to the Music Box to see this projected on the big screen for the first time and hear the live organ accompaniment, which was excellent. It’s been a long while since I’ve seen this so it was great to see w/a big audience. I believe this is the first time I’ve seen it with the German text and English subtitles. Really cool to see this but forgot how silly that ending is.
