I agree that Anne is capable of singing the song in full belt. If she had been performing this song in a stage production, she would have sung the song differently. This was a directorial and acting decision and I love how they have interpreted the song. Her version still features the core of the song while adding weight to it necessarily in the film medium. She is trying to tell a story rather than just singing a song perfectly.
I'm looking forward to the rest of the songs. Something like "Stars" can be sung in a whisper and still have the same impact as long as the actor stays in tune and on key.

everyone is entitled to their opinions of course, but if you are going to watch/listen to all of the spoilers, then you do have to take them with a few grains of salt.
imo, the 'trailer' looks and sounds great, and has certainly peaked my (already high) interest!

Dave, I see what you're saying and I never had a problem with your opinion itself.
I took issue with your use of a vague claim as evidence to support what is essentially a subjective opinion parading around as an objective fact of a self-appointed singing expert. I'm aware you never called yourself an expert, but you stated everything as some established pro standard that amateur Anne violated in an inherently flawed non-performance.
Baloney!! :P

Well you'll have to take the word of the "students" who are all actors in the West End.

And was it sung in the open?? One of the rebels/barricade boys did mention that it was a pretty chilled out day!
I have been waiting to hear about this moment! Now the waiting for the movie gets even more interminable!
To sing for 2 hours -- he did just that in BACK ON BROADWAY, and with dancing to boot!

Posted: 5/15/12 at 8:02pmI don't think "chilled out" pertained to the weather, he was probably referring to the fact that filming wasn't as intense today, as it sounded like they were pretending they were sleeping most of the day. I believe they are currently filming at Pinewood Studios so they would be inside.

A journalist from the Daily Telegraph who interviewed Hugh and Russell the day before said she felt sorry for them because it was pretty chilly and their trailers were cold! That was why I thought the barricade boy might be referring to the weather. But you are probably right because he didn't say that it was "chilly", instead he used "chilled out".
I am not familiar with movie studios, but would a huge soundstage be completely sheltered from any cold temperatures?

Posted: 5/15/12 at 10:49pmjo- yes a studio would be temperature-controlled, for sure.

Posted: 5/19/12 at 11:56pmI really cannot wait for this movie, I think it has the potential to be spectacular. I hope they can market it properly and make it work. It's so great that everyone seems so committed to the film...also, I love this threat!

And hopefully that rumor about the trailer is true!

Keep in mind that teaser trailers often don't show any actual footage from the movie. Some do, but many don't.
The Dreamgirls teaser trailer showed silhouettes of three model-doubles at the microphone while the OBCR of Jennifer Holliday played in the background.
