All I Care About Is Love

There are some interesting ideas in this episode. Again the episode cannot sustain the scenes.

It does well in catching the turmoil in Fosse's life in 1974. He is editing the movie Lenny and the opening date is getting nearer and nearer.

Meanwhile rehearsals are due to take place for a new stage musical, Chicago. Verdon had a high degree of creative control for the musical.

An already stretched Fosse, smoking, drinking and on drugs suffers a heart attack.

The episode is told in a stand up style from the film Lenny. Instead we get a chapter on Fosse's life and how he started out as a child performer in burlesque clubs. His sexual awakening from older strippers.

I think the problem is the series is too long at eight episodes. I am sure I have seen some of the scenes earlier such as the incident in the strip clubs. If Fosse was alive today and saw the series. He would complain that it needed to be tighter.
