Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

I Am a Camera (1955): 1 line

  1. lineage (inspiration) · through Cabaret (1972), which they scored: I Am a Camera ⇒ Cabaret (the host's read). I Am a Camera, from the Berlin stories, led to Cabaret.
    “I am a camera, which is, of course, uh, the Julie Harris movie that will eventually... Come, Camera, inspires the guys into cabaret, yes.”

Lenny (1974): 1 line

  1. craft (structure) · through Star 80 (1983), which they scored: Lenny ⇒ Star 80 (the host's read). Star 80's interview framing/superstructure echoes Lenny's, and Lenny is the origin of the Chevy-Chase-style voice.
    “This movie, you have the interview, this sort of superstructure that he loves so much”

Sweet Charity (1969): 1 line

  1. unmapped (technique) · through Star 80 (1983), which they scored: Sweet Charity ⇒ Star 80 (the host's read). Fosse's choreographic insert/isolation technique reappears in Star 80, applied to ugly material.
    “There's even the, I mean, the whole fossy isolation of the body parts thing, right?”

Barry Lyndon (1975): 1 line

What was said about them, by kind

craft (1)

  1. craft (craft): Ralph Burns → Star 80. Burns scored Star 80 with two stings, one a creeping-dread cue that the speaker finds upsetting even isolated.
    “There's that... Well, then there's the creeping, like, dread, you know... Whenever that that truly makes my skin crawl whenever that plays.”
