SATAN: His Psychotherapy And Cure By the Unfortunate Dr. Seymour Kassler, J.S.P.S. by Jeremy Leven ‧
RELEASE DATE: May 25, 1982
As in David Shobin's creepy The Unborn (1981), Satan is now a computer. But Leven isn't after chills, he's after laughs--and he gets them in abundance here, thanks partly to mad scientist Leo Szlyck, the creator of the possessed super-machine: it operates off feedback only, off existing energy; it reads minds, knows all, feels pain. And then, during one of crazy Leo's many hospitalizations--this time in a mental hospital named Phlegethon in Citadel, New Jersey--he becomes the patient of Sy Kassler, a clinical psychologist with the sufferings of a Job.
Sy feels that he killed his father through aggravation and disappointment; he has had a nervous breakdown of his own (to which he responded by becoming a psychoanalyst); he's divorced from beautiful but bitchy Vita, who neglected their two children but wouldn't let Sy have custody of them. And now, when Sy gets inventor Leo as a patient, things go really bad: Sy falls in love with Leo's wife Lupa, but she (in love with Satan the computer) becomes a call girl; Sy has a confused homosexual affair with a colleague who later kills himself; the hospital director turns out to be Satan's son-and does neurochemical research on kept-alive brains of the otherwise dead. . . . Yes, folks, this is just your average plot put into shock-therapy, attached to electrodes of Freud, Einstein, Milton--and then Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner. Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner Well, sort of--because Kassler, at the end of his tether, finally agrees to psychoanalyze Satan the computer; and Satan, it seems, is--like the scientist in Leven's first novel, Creator, 1980--simply a frustrated author, a fellow with all kinds of iconoclastic information to impart. (On Adam and Eve: ""I'll tell you Kassler. She looked at his crotch. She looked at her crotch. Then she looked back at his crotch. 'How do I get one of them?' were the first words out of her mouth. It's been a disaster ever since."") Admittedly, Kassler's trials and tribulations--psychiatry exposÉs (along the scabrous lines of Samuel Shem's House of God), divorce/custody nightmares, neurochemical research, hellish sex clubs--are unrisen dumplings swimming in the narrative broth, with the kooky plot just a framework for riffing excursions. But, technicalities aside, Leven has indeed become the self-propelling, science-based, equable comic entertainer that Creator presaged--and, though more bathos and buffa than Bosch, this is an engagingly longwinded, generously satisfying clever-devil of a showpiece.

JEREMY JORDAN AND YAEL GROBGLAS STAR IN ‘HANUKKAH ON RYE,’ A NEW, ORIGINAL MOVIE PREMIERING DECEMBER 18, ON HALLMARK CHANNEL
Part of the Network’s Annual “Countdown to Christmas” Programming Event
Grammy Award Winner Lisa Loeb Brings Both Her Talent and Voice to The Screen with Her Song “Light”
STUDIO CITY, CA – November 9, 2022 – Jeremy Jordan (“Supergirl,” “Mix Up in the Mediterranean”) and Yael Grobglas (“Jane the Virgin,” “The Selection”) and Grammy Award- winner Lisa Loeb (“Robot Chicken”) star in “Hanukkah on Rye,” a new, original movie premiering Sunday, December 18 (8 p.m. ET/PT), on Hallmark Channel as part of the network’s annual “Countdown to Christmas” programming event.
Molly (Grobglas) is poised to become the fourth generation of her family to run Gilbert’s Deli on the Lower East Side of New York City. Now, almost 100 years later, Gilbert’s is the last old-school Jewish deli standing...and it’s getting harder and harder to make ends meet. Meanwhile, Jacob’s (Jordan) family are “deli royalty” in Southern California and have a completely different way of doing business. Jacob wants to make his own mark in the deli world and to do that, he’s spearheading the expansion of Leven’s to New York City just blocks away from Gilbert’s. A couple weeks before the first night of Hanukkah, Jacob’s “bubby” (grandmother) gives Jacob an early Hanukkah gift: she’s signed him up with an infamous matchmaker. Molly’s bubby has the same idea. According to the rules, Jacob and Molly must write handwritten letters under assumed names to get to know each other. As they begin to write to each other under their pseudonyms of Beth and David, they begin to fall for each other. At the same time, Jacob has come to New York to close the deal for the new Leven’s location, and Molly and Jacob meet in real life, and neither is aware they know each other as Beth and David through their letters. There’s an instant romantic connection between them over Hanukkah week until Molly learns Jacob’s identity and realizes he could potentially put her family’s deli out of business. Molly is torn between “David,” who she’s started to fall for thanks to his letters, and Jacob, who she can’t stop being attracted to despite their conflicts. In the end, will Molly and Jacob put their differences aside and get their own Hanukkah miracle?
“Hanukkah on Rye” is from Hallmark Media. Joey Plager is executive producer. The movie is produced by Ian Dimerman. Peter DeLuise directed from a script by Julie Sherman Wolfe.

Mijn top 3 boeken :)
1. Verity
Tumblr media
Er zijn misschien 2 of 3 boeken die ik op de 1ste plaats zou kunnen plaatsen, maar Verity overtreft ze allemaal. Verity werd geschreven door Colleen Hoover, die momenteel een heel beroemde schrijver is voor de jeugd. Verity is recent, het boek werd gepubliceerd in 2018.
Nu, over wat gaat Verity eigenlijk? Waarom heb ik die gekozen als top 1?
Lowen Ashleigh is een niet-zo-succesvolle schrijver die dringend geld nodig heeft. Ze wordt een job aangeboden door Jeremy Crawford, echtgenoot van Verity Crawford, een bekende schrijfster die in de coma zit na een belangrijk auto-ongeluk. Lowen krijgt de kans om de laatste drie romans van Verity's bestsellerreeks af te schrijven. Lowen verhuist naar de Crawfords huis om door verity haar notities door te gaan. Ze ontdekt een autobiografisch manuscript van Verity dat de duistere geheimen van Verity's leven bevat. Ook wordt ze verliefd op Verity's echtgenoot, Jeremy, wat het er niet makkelijker op maakt.
Ik heb dit boek gekozen als top 1 omdat het de beste thriller is dat ik gelezen heb. Er is een belangrijke plot twist op het einde die mij het kippenvel heeft gegeven. Dit boek was spannend van de eerste tot de laatste pagina, ik heb het in één keer gelezen omdat ik persee wou weten hoe het eindigde.
Ik raad dit boek vast en zeker aan!
2. The sun is also a star
Tumblr media
The sun is also a star is een roman geschreven door Nicola Yoon. Het boek werd gepubliceerd in 2016.
The sun is also a star vertelt het verhaal van Natasha en Daniel - twee tieners die elkaar ontmoeten op de straat in New York en door een speling van het lot op slag verliefd worden. Ze worden verliefd op elkaar in één dag, ze zijn zielsverwanten. Maar Natasha staat op het punt met haar familie gedeporteerd te worden naar Jamaica. Natasha denkt eerst dat het beter is om afstand te nemen van Daniel omdat ze zijn hoop niet wilt wekken. Maar haar liefde voor hem neemt het over en ze gaat alles doen om bij hem in New York te blijven.
Ik vond dit een heel mooi boek omdat hun liefde voor elkaar heel goed werd beschreven en heel diep en filosofisch werd voorgesteld. Ik heb van dit boek ook veel bijgeleerd. Nicola Yoon, de schrijver is zelf van New York en geeft veel culturele uitleg over de zwarte buren of de Aziatische buren van de stad.
Dit is een boek die ik vaak terug open.
3. Cel 7
Tumblr media
Dit boek zit als 3de plaats op het podium. Cel 7 is het 1ste boek uit een trilogie. Deze thriller werd geschreven door Kerry Drewery. Het boek werd gepubliceerd in 2017.
Cel 7 gaat over een multimiljonair, Jackson Paige die vermoord wordt. Martha, een 16-jarige meisje, wordt bij het lijk gevonden, met een geweer in haar hand. Het lijkt dus duidelijk dat ze schuldig is. Vooral in een maatschappij waar rechtszaken en advocaten niet bestaan, maar het publiek via de populaire realityshow "Dood is gerechtigheid" beslist of iemand schuldig is of niet. Toch is er iets die raar is, Martha heeft zelf bekend dat ze schuldig is. Maar zegt ze de waarheid? Of is de realiteit veel complexer dan de media het publiek wil doen geloven? Er is een countdown van 7 dagen totdat het publiek definitief beslist of ze levend blijft of dood gaat.
Dit boek heb ik 2 jaar geleden gelezen voor de Nederlandse klas. Ik vond het verhaal heel interessant. Ik was heel betrokken bij het boek en vond het oneerlijk dat er geen systeem is waar de schuldigen zichzelf konden beschermen. Dit boek toont heel goed de macht die social media en fake news kan hebben. Mensen worden heel snel overtuigd van wat ze verteld worden, ook al is het social media. Verder vond ik het verhaal heel leuk met veel spanning.
Hier geef ik dus mijn top 3 van de beste boeken die ik heb gelezen. Hopelijk heb ik je geïnspireerd om een ​​van deze boeken te lezen.
Tot ziens!

The Notebook. Theater Review.
Upload ImageEmbed VideoUnsplash image
Click to update image
"The Notebook" is based on the 1996 novel of the same name by Nicholas Sparks. The 2004 movie was directed by Nick Cassavetes, from a screenplay by Jeremy Leven and Jan Sardi. In its current Broadway production, the book is by Bekah Brunstetter and the music and lyrics is by Ingrid Michaelson.
The musical has two directors: four time Tony nominee Michael Greif and Schele Williams who is making a Broadway debut. Williams is also going to be directing the highly anticipated "The Wiz" which is opening in April.
In the current musical we get three Noah's and three Allie's... younger, middle and older. For the most part the six are good; I thought that the younger Allie (Jordan Tyson) was woefully miscast. Where Allie came from money, was a proper girl, this younger Allie ex-hued none of that. More like an inner city persona, Tyson was just not believable.
In Brett J. Banakis gorgeous set design we get a wonderful slide movement throughout the two hours fifteen minutes.Equally as effective is the sound by Nevin Steinberg and the costumes by Paloma Young. The effective orange and blue lighting by Ben Stanton too made the mood well in tune with the plot.
The musical for the most part was very similar to the movie, two young people fall deeply in love with one another and even though ten years has gone by, they never stop thinking of each other. The key to the musicals success is that the three different sets of Noah and Allie need to all be effective. Whereas Maryann Plunkett as the elder and Dorian Harewood as the husband are excellent, we get the best interaction between Joy Woods and Ryan Vasquez, the middle aged actors; their singing and body language is captivating. The two are silky smooth on stage! Even though John Cardoza holds up his end as the younger Noah, it is Tyson who is an anchor around his neck. Even though Tyson has a very good singing voice, her Broadway debut falls flat.
The two opening scenes, both first act and second act fire on all cylinders. It is the second act, however, where this show excels. The songs, the pace and the story all come together nicely. Songs like "We Have To Try", "Forever", "It's Not Easy", "I Know" and "Coda" were all well sung songs; the lyrics too were catchy and fit the moment of the plot. The first act too had some nice songs: "Time", "Leave The Light On", "If This Is Love" were most memorable. Having some great moments in the first act, it still didn't compare the the afternoons second act.
For the romantics out there, "The Notebook" is for the most part an entertaining show. The choreography (Katie Spelman) is underwhelming, as is some of the ensemble cast. Allie's parents: Andrea Burns and Charles E. Wallace are not moving in their parts. Burns was much more effective in her role as nurse Lori.Neither actor brought depth as parents to Allie, they were mostly robotic and aloof.
.....................................................................................................................
Next up is Water for Elephants at The Imperial Theatre. This musical is based on the circus and maybe a real sleeper when it comes a show that may just wow the audience.
Since many good shows have opened but unexpectedly closed in a rather quick fashion (Spamelot, Days of Wine and Roses, Shucked), this musical may surprise to the upside.
It seems that shows that aren't unanimously well received, and in Shucked case was, are closing with not spending much time on the great white way.

27 years ago (1995), on this day (April 3) Johnny Depp attended the Beverly Hills Premiere of “Don Juan DeMarco” at The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Theater, in Beverly Hills, California.
On that day, Johnny attended the event with his then girlfriend Kate Moss, as well the cast of the movie: the actresses Faye Dunaway and Geraldine Pailhas, the director Jeremy Leven and the producer Francis Ford Coppola. 
> Curiosities:  Although the movie was scheduled to be released in 4 days, on April 7, 1995 and at that time, the movie was still being promoted under its original title “Don Juan DeMarco and the Centerfold” which was altered shortly before the release.

Don Juan DeMarco (1994), directed by Jeremy Leven
What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for? And what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love.
