LaPaglia, Johansson, McDormand to Star in Film Version of A View From the Bridge

I saw LaPaglia in this show back in '98 and he was brilliant. The addition of Frances McDormand and Scarlet Johanson is going to make this film incredible.

I've been a fan of Janney's for years now and she was the main reason I made the trip up to see the show and she did not dissapoint. I *should* be upset she's not doing this film but how can I be, when someone like McDormand is taking the role?

As for Murphy, her understudy was on the day I saw the show so I can't comment on her.

I didn't see it, but as I recall, Murphy was well-received in the role.

I have a had a question which was spurred by this thread. In the opera A View from the Bridge there is a great song by the tenor - anyone know the title? Also, it is used in audtions. (I did try to google, but no luck.)

I saw Britney, and she was fantastic. All through act one I thought "Why do I recognize that voice?" and then it hit me that she was the voice of the niece on King of the Hill.

Unfortunately, she chose to take her career in a different direction, and I don't think she would be able to pull off the role now.

I regret not having caught Roundabout's production. Though this news provides comfort....
