I dunno. Since I've seen
Nine, I've had a lot more respect for Antonio. When I heard he was going to be Guido, I wasn't the happiest person in the world because (a) I'd heard him sing in the ALW birthday celebration and he wasn't that great, to say it nicely (b) Based on his movies that I've seen, I didn't see what was so special about him. Then I saw
Nine and...I can't really describe why I suddenly felt he could sing and act well. I guess it was the way he played out Guido's midlife crisis and his devotion to women, and his voice has developed a lot more since...1999? 2000? I can't remember the year the ALW celebration was. He is truly having the time of his life and is genuinely loving it.
And KB, in regards to your reply:
I think that they will give it to Harvey since Antonio has many more chances to win Tonys if he keeps doing Broadway.It's not like Harvey is going to drop out of the limelight after
Hairspray is over, either.
