Amazon prime video is streaming 2001 a Space Odyssey. It was first released fifty-five years ago. It is remarkable how well it has held up. The dates are a little off but other than that… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I last saw it on the big screen just before it’s 30th anniversary release, back in 1998. The big screen with a good sound system is the best way but it wasn’t bad on the small screen last night.
I love the scenes of the space liner, set to the Blue Danube waltz. They still work.
So today we get a truly great performance of Johann Strauss II’s “The Beautiful Blue Danube” by André Rieu & his Johann Strauss Orchestra.
Enjoy, Jack
