I have to say that my favourite Bach (not that I am too familiar with him) is <<Erbarme dich, mein Herren Gott>> so much so that I think that I'd have a recording of it played at my funereal.

Followed by Judee Sills' <<The Kiss>>.

Then a screening of the dance scene in Laurel and Hardy's <<Way out West>>

@divya Hi @divya, I follow you as @14mission but you asked about movies so I'll answer from this account.
If you're curious about serious movies with explicit social commentary, I'm sure there are some. I'll see what I can find.
But there are plenty of movies intended as entertainment that seem to relate to what was going on in the world. #LaurelAndHardy are often migrants trying to get by with odd jobs or handouts, getting harassed by cops for trying to sleep in parks, etc. Admittedly, they were already like this in their late 20's silent films, when the economy was better and their problems finding steady work were probably just because they would honestly make terrible employees anywhere, but I think the depression suddenly made their misadventures relatable to everyone.

I kinda feel like there should be a brand that competes directly against the Stanley line of water bottles that’s named Oliver.

Clearly I need a nap. #LaurelAndHardy

In today's talkie matinee (3pm) we'll be showing #LaurelAndHardy 's "Towed in a Hole". The title is a clear riff on the expression "Toad in the Hole", but which meaning do you think they had in mind?

Spent some time in #CulverCity yesterday, onetime home of the Hal Roach Studio. A lot of buildings that appear in the backgrounds of #HalRoach Productions, like #LaurelAndHardy films, are still standing, and have had a lot of other screen appearances over the intervening decades. Below is the Culver Hotel. Film location blogger John Bengtson describes its appearance in L&H films 70's and 80's TV shows here: silentlocations.com/2018/04/01
I get the feeling that Culver City went downhill a bit after the classic movie era, but it's looking pretty spiffy now.
