Scoff if you will.
But Barbra Streisand appearing in the film of "Gypsy" made international headlines. Would Patti "I AM FAMOUS, DAMMIT" LuPone? Sutton "I smile the same f*cking smile through every show" Foster? Kristin "I'm going to continue to act like Madeline Kahn for the rest of my career" Chenoweth? I think not.
The film may be a bomb or may be a smash. I look forward to finding out.
