Morning Man Classic: Christopher Plummer!
Went to the annual The Sound of Music sing-along at Hollywood Bowl on Friday night and it was the first time I’d ever seen the film on the big screen.
In fact, I realized that night, it was the first time I remember seeing it in its entirety! I was familiar with the musical numbers and some scenes but, somehow, had never seen it from start to finish. (Before you revoke my gay card, I’ve seen Beaches at least 25 times!).
Anyway, seeing it for the first time and on the big screen, I was struck by how damned handsome Christopher Plummer is. Just breathtaking as Captain Georg Johannes von Trapp. I’d have left the convent for him in five seconds flat!
Now 85, he’s still pretty damned handsome and won the Oscar three years ago for his performance as a gay man in Beginners.
During his stellar career, Plummer also has won two Emmy Awards, two Tony Awards, a Golden Globe Award, a SAG Award, and a BAFTA Award.

He was seriously swoon worth in his younger years (Sound of Music era) and he still is darn handsome.

Beaches 25 times? You’re gay card has been upgraded to platinum and can never be revoked and no longer has an expiration date!

I remember seeing ‘The Sound of Music’ on the big screen in a theater upon it’s initial release in 1965. It was indeed glorious.
Beaches 25 times? Once was enough for me. And I’ve only seen two Meryl Streep movies in my lifetime and they weren’t the big ones (She-Devil and The Hours). I must’ve tossed my gay card out a long time ago.
