Yea... like LuPone wouldn't be the least bit concerned with make-up and lighting if she was cast in the film version and it was her kisser was up there 30 feet high and 70 across.

It's not her kisser they're worried about. It's getting that nose on the screen.

Age and looks and have little to do with Barbra's desire for control of her image. However, one can imagine how much they'd be compounded by her current age and miscasting for this part.

I really can't see any other scenario than this being another bad GYPSY film.

And was Patti crass about it, no doubt. But she knows Barbra is another stratosphere of stardom and it frees her to say what she thinks.

I agree with her on a couple of points. The woman who plays Rose has to have a break down, she has to get feral.

I also agree that movie musicals don't work.

I think I will always love Patti because if she didn't go into theater she would've sung rock music. Even when I was a child I was aware of how hopelessly square Barbra was, she seemed determined to not notice that rock and roll was even happening. By the time she got hep to what the kids were diggin in the '60s, it was around 1976, and the die was irrevocably cast. She was and always remained on the other side of the generational divide.

Say what you will about Patti, but she is definitely the rock and roll generation.

Patti, you are becoming really tiresome.
