Evening Primrose - "If You Can Find Me, I'm Here" (Stephen Sondheim) - Restored DVD
Loading...
Uploaded by kochvision on Oct 18, 2010
This long-lost treasure is now available on DVD for the first time ever -- impeccably restored and re-mastered from a pristine kinescope print.
The people are gone. The doors are locked. Darkness descends inside a department store. Fleeing the pressures of the outside world, an unhappy poet is at last alone. But not quite. In his newfound sanctuary, he comes across a group of hermits who have been hiding there for years. Among them is a young girl with whom he falls in love.
Created especially for television, Evening Primrose aired only once on ABC Stage 67. Starring Anthony Perkins and Charmian Carr, the production featured a teleplay adapted by James Goldman (from a short story by John Collier) and a score that included some of Stephen Sondheim's most hauntingly beautiful songs -- among them "If You Can Find Me, I'm Here" and "Take Me to the World".

He ROCKS.

something too clever about his face makes him incapable of seeming clueless the way Michael Crawford did in Hello, Dolly the movie.

This musical is equivalent to my life.

I like how he's slightly cross-eyed. He really WAS a genius.

The person who disliked this no doubt attempted to hide in a mall and was found. Poor thing...

You have to love Anthony Perkins. The simple fact is that he wasn't a skilled enough singer to be singing Stephen Sondheim. But he still sang his heart out on this, and he was pretty darn good. His performance in this scene is so perfect. He nails the emotions of a writer frustrated with the world around him.
And Stephen Sondheim's music and lyrics are, as always, perfect.
