“The main problem, as usual, is the script – or lack thereof.”
This is a script that won the 1981 Tony for Best Book of a Musical. It was fleshed out and certain details changed, but Roger’s original criticism wasn’t of the stage-to-screen transition, but rather of the script as a whole.
Are there musicals you *do* like, Roger, or is this just rating a very, very good film of a musical poorly because it isn’t a straight film?
