It was great to see the singers I'd heard a hundred times over the past three years finally perform, and the director, cinematographer and editor made some interesting choices putting the movie together. I'd give it an A, only because the actress who played Eliza when we saw the show killed it on Burn, far better than the otherwise amazing Phillipa Soo did on the same scene. My Broadway Eliza just so tapped into Eliza's anger and frustration so much more eloquently.

Who sawed what (other than maybe a drive-in movie -- or concert -- for the first time in 30 years)? {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Jul 06, 07:17
