Both are their bests in their own mediums.

The film gives full camp, with an amazing score by Alan Silvestri, MerylStreep plays into the camp.  The film will always Have a nostalgic factor to it plus it's special effects for the time was revolutionary.

The musical does the same with the camp gives a bit more pathos, with a score that gives musical homages to Silvestris score, while making it its own. Plus the ending is, from what I have heard from Goldie Hawns interview

How awful that she even had to mention how much she loves her job.  So many have judged from afar, said cruel things without knowing(nor should you have any right to know). If someone calls out from a show then something must have been warranted to call out.  If it is something that can't be decided the day before or even a week before than so be it.  We get it, if you were planning to attend and have that missed opportunity you can be upset but is it to a de

thats what I am thinking with Katie Rose Clarke will play either the older or narrator Dolly..or she and Carrie St Louis will play the version the public never sees(sans wigs and makeup) vs the public image of Dolly

aDoes Katie Rose Clarke have one eye blue and one eye brown?  Is this a clue since Carrie St Louis eyes are Blue and the younger actress has brown eyes, is Katie Rose Clarke possibly portraying a version of Dolly if she didnt make it in the business what

I am baffled by the show's treatment of Betty Boop as a modern day cultural icon, when I don't know a single person who considers Betty Boop to have a huge cultural footprint. When one thinks of "classic cartoons" Betty is fairly low down the list after Disney, Looney Toons, Popeye...even Droopy Dog- her

For me it took a few episodes to get into, it felt like it was trying VERY hard to be a reboot of golden girls and even the creators have made that comparison when Linda Lavin passing they said it was the same as if Estelle Getty passed.   However it does get better, and truly to see Linda Lavin in this so much, and for her final episode and farewell episode(which again the creators spoke that she told them whatever she is going thru in her last days to use in their writing and they

Just go see this.  Forget the so called backlash...forget even the questionable imdb rating..  this is far from a below 2 star rating on imdb. To me it ranges between a 5 and 7.5 depending on your nostalgia to the original.  The new songs, while not as fitting to the original(same problem I had with the added song in aladdin by the pasek and paul), they still sounded somewhat in the same world....for me Gal Gadot was miscast in this film from her singing to her a
