TV critic Robert Lloyd breaks down the good, the bad and the ugly of the latest entrant in the streaming wars so you can decide whether it's worth the money.
and captured in the wild in Jennie Livingston’s 1990 documentary “Paris Is Burning,” ballroom gets a splashy competition show, natural enough for a performance already framed as a contest. What is moving about “Pose” and “Paris” remains moving here: self-expression as healing and the House, something more than a team, as elective family. “Legendary” feels like a celebration, just by existing.
Given ballroom’s historical use-what-you-have, gold-from-straw invention, it is a little disappointing to find the Houses working with designers and stylists and choreographers, industry professionals enlisted to industrially professionalize their presentations, as in movies where a producer tragically commercializes what is raw and original in an artist.
If “Legendary” is not quite mainstream, that the ballroom community has grown beyond the LGBTQ black and Latinx street kids who created it is a point judge Leiomy Maldonado, a ballroom veteran, states explicitly and the range of competitors demonstrates. Some “controversy”“Looney Tunes Cartoons .” Cartoon characters, being immortal, are endlessly exploitable. Developed by Peter Browngardt , “Looney Tunes Cartoons,” a collection of shorts one to six minutes in length, means to reanimate classic intellectual property from the Warner Bros. animation department — Bugs and Daffy and Porky and Tweety and Pepé and the like — taking the franchise into the future by way of the past.
Indeed, some poses might have been traced from the originals; the musical track is pure Carl Stallings; old gags are replayed ; and sound effects are in boinging antique order. One can argue whether this approach is good or bad. It seems both to me somehow, honoring tradition, and yet, in attempting to recreate the past, unavoidably inauthentic. There may be no good answer, or the answer may be that you can’t go home again. Ultimately the new shorts will stand on their own merit.
