Today might have been a great day forCarousel,Mean Girls, andSpongeBob, but I doubt June 10 will be a great evening for any of them. Of those three, I can only really seeCarouselwinning Featured Actress, with maybe a design award or two for SpongeBob. That's about it."
Agreed! But you forgot the actual record-breaking example: Scottsboro Boys nominated for 12, and won 0 (stillsad about that!)
That, then, tied The Full Monty, which had the bad luck to open in 2001, the year The Producers swept. I loved The Full Monty; saw it three times (which I know is nothing for those of who in NYC, but I come up from out of town). I remember Brantley's rave review, saying that the Eugene O'Neill wouldn't be looking for a tenant for a very long time. I loved The Producers, too, but felt really bad for The Full Monty on Tony night.
