From viable news reports, the makers of the Phantom film are thrilled with the singing talents of its principle cast.
I think many of us are delighted to know that this film is not being dubbed, but I wonder why? Most of us clearly understand the difference between something live and on film. Why does it disturb us to think a film will be dubbed?
It just seems to. When I was very young, I remember falling in love with Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady. I was devastated, I tell you DEVASTATED, when I was told she had not sung her songs in My Fair Lady. I don't know why, but I was.
I don't know if that fact changed my love for the film, or just my level of love for Ms. Hepburn, but it sure changed something.
Having viewed and heard scenes with Ms. Hepburn's singing voice, it is clear that the vastly superior singing talents of Marni Nixon added a whole other magical dimension to the My Fair Lady film.
So is it just the disappointment in the performer in the film that disturbs us, or does it mess up the whole film watching experience?

Posted: 9/11/03 at 7:22pmThe film WILL be dubbed in the sense that the performers will pre-record their singing with the orchestra and then lip-synch when they're in front of the cameras. That's the way it's done in Hollywood. Still, the movie will probably stink even more than the stage version does.

Thanks for your two cents Dolly.
What other way is there to do it? They record there voices then lip it for the movie.

Posted: 9/12/03 at 4:22pmHas someone overtaken Dollypop's handle?? Surely the TRUE Dollypop would never have made an atrocious error such as using the incorrect spelling of "they're/their" in a post? I am aghast...

Posted: 9/12/03 at 4:39pmI'm kind of glad they will be doing their own singing. I'm looking forward to Minnie's voice.

Posted: 9/12/03 at 9:33pmThank you for catching my egregious error. I've been taking pain killers lately. They not only kill the pain, but they affect one's spelling skills as well!
