re: Shrek Score at the Tonys...
Both wrong. I love the music AND the lyrics. Though I can see that it's not a perfect score, there is MUCH to be admired in it. What's dragging down Shrek's chances is just the competition. In a weaker year, they'd take the Tony home. In a stronger year, they wouldn't even be nominated. I think it's a more than solid showing from the composer AND the lyricist, and there's no need to knock either. I look forward to future scores from both of them.

re: Watching the Drama Desk Awards
I was thrilled for Angela Lansbury, but besides that I was bored out of my mind. Glad they cut the musical numbers, but geez, hardly anyone showed up to collect their awards.
re: Oh, Esposito, and Tenney Join RABBIT HOLE Film
John Gallagher IS too old for the part. The guy's well into his twenties now, and the part is of a high school student. I'm not surprised they cast an unknown actor as the kid. The other actors they're adding are all really interesting (I love Sandra Oh!) but I wonder who they're playing, and how they've pumped up the screenplay. The play is only five characters.

re: Nine Trailer!
Counting the days for this. It looks and sounds amazing. Is it really possible we're going to have another GOOD movie musical?
re: Rabbit Hole interview with John Cameron Mitchell
The biggest news to me here is that John Cameron Mitchell is directing. What a strange choice for him. Hedwig is one of my favorite shows of all time. It's so funny thinking of him directing something so straight-laced as Rabbit Hole. Although judging from the video, he obviously has a strong connection to the material. I didn't know he had a four year old brother pass away when he was younger. So sad. I'm eager to see how this movie turns out.
