Amour

Did anyone see this show in the short time it was on bway? What was wrong with it? What did you think of it?

I didn't see it but I can't get through the cast recording without falling asleep. The music bores me so much.
A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.

My friend raved about the show so I bought the cast recording and can only echo what little_sally said. It bored me to tears!

yeah, i'm listening to the recording for the first time right now and so far it's not great. seems like the kind of recording you have to listen to a bunch of times before really getting into it. (like marie christine)

I love Michel Legrand's music.Do yourself a favour and watch the movie The Umbrella's of Cherbourg. My favourite movie musical by a long shot.

re: Amour

I saw AMOUR on Broadway. Actually, I was there at the first preview.

I don't think that there was anything "wrong" with it. The show was sweet and quite touching -- not big, loud or flashy, but quite tender and engaging. And the cast was spectacular.

I wish I had seen it more than once. And I think that many people -- particularly those who enjoy simple, engaging stories -- would have enjoyed it. Unfortunately, the show closed before it had a chance to catch on.

I suppose I should mention that, being at the first preview (and in the third row, no less), I was there when the show had to be stopped because part of the set fell. I was a bit jarred by that, but ultimately deeply impressed by the professionalism of everyone on stage, especially Malcolm Gets.
