From the new opera The Fly

Hey David Cronenberg fans - the maestro’s marvelous film ‘The Fly’ is now an opera!, (Thanks to Professor Doctor G.H. for the tip!).

Yes, though I type this in ‘Middle Tennessee’ I find it just might be worth a trip out to LA to check this out.  I’ve been a fan of Cronenberg from way back - for a while there he had a ‘run’ where every single one of his films was superior to the one before - absolutely riveting watching a director just get better and better, (also if you’ve never seen ‘Spider’ I highly recommend it - it feels like the best Canadian made-for-tv movie ever made! ((Kinda the thinking person’s ‘Beautiful Mind’)).
