Jazz
by Debra White

I haven't seen the movie. I really like Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone. I'll have to check it out. I like your presentation and imagery. I like the difference between fonts and sound...great job!

I was reading your colorful poem and was thinking - ah, a kindred spirit who doesn't "care too much for jazz" and for exactly the same reasons! And now you've convinced me that I should see that movie. It didn't look too promising when it came out but if it will have such a life-changing effect, I'll make a point of watching! Thanks!

    Thank you so much for your great feedback, Helen!
    I don't profess to loving all different strains of jazz, but the music from the film is great :)
    ps: Please don't hold it against me if you don't enjoy the film! I'm sure Dolly won't mind me sharing that she thought it was 'a joke' LOL
    Best wishes as always, Debra x

    I never get what the Academy Awards judges see. They loved LA LA Land so I figured I wouldn't like it. Lol.

I think you and I are on par, I'm not that fond of modern jazz, but traditional I don't mind, but this is more about the film, (which I didn't see.) creatively and nicely written dear Debra, it's a very colourful work of art, well done my talented friend, blessings Roy

I thought la la land was a joke actually Debra, but I am glad that it encouraged you to like Jazz and now you are converted to those odd notes, a fine poem, you made me smile with your musical words here, very clever, love Dolly x

    Hello Dolly :) Thank you for your lovely feedback - different strokes for different folks, as my nan used to say! I really enjoyed it and liked that the ending wasn't conventional. Also, Ryan Gosling is very easy on the eye! Best wishes as always, Debra x
