This comes to show just how powerful a full orchestra can be and how much more emotional substance it can add. Sadly, the Broadway orchestra is one of the most overlooked things.
It's only when there is a direct comparison that one realizes how important it is. The Sweeney revival used a cheap excuse for an orchestra. Actually, it was more like a band. It was not sufficient, therefore not fulfilling the score's emotional potential. The film uses one of the most grand orchestras I've heard. Beautiful.
