I'm right there with you, Mandy. ...Hear, hear!<br /><br />I'm right there with you, Mandy. I don't have the same music theater background, or even a familiarity with this musical. I enjoy musical theater very much, both live and movie versions, but I avoid watching things that will make me bawl like a baby... and this is one of those things. <br /><br />The genre - musical theater - has to be handled properly. I love film, but not all musicals have been made into wonderful movies. I hope this is one of them. The fact that the actors are singing live is AMAZING and Anne Hathaway's rendition of that song in the trailer has me in tears every time I hear it. I hope the others will do as well, but I don't think I'll be able to see it for Christmas. One, I'm working, and two, I REALLY hate crying in public. NOT how I want to spend Christmas. :-p<br /><br />I will definitely see it on the big screen at some point, because I think it needs to be experienced that way. Anne's trailer guarantees that, but I'll bring a small towel, pick a seat way back in a corner, and hopefully a showing that has very few others in the audience. Then I'll hope the other cast members do as excellent a job as Anne does. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12929386151409985417noreply@blogger.com
