Yeah, the underscore for that 1998 Les Misérables" by Basil Poledouris was brilliant.

Did you hear that they're currently adapting Stephen Sondheim's Sweeney Todd, with Sam Mendes helming as director? That should be interesting (and somewhat promising).

Really? Now that I had not heard. I wonder how that will translate to the screen.
It's not one of my favorites, merely becasue of the morbid story topic.

More hot pies!

How about a little priest?

Have I mentioned lately that I adore you? ;) :cool:

I agree with your take on the film, flippyshark.
Seeing as how I felt 'Evita' and 'Phantom" bombed, I do not have high hopes for 'Les Mis' nor 'Rent' (both I adore, 'Rent' changed my life).
But 'Rent' will have the director from 'Chicago' at its helm, so maybe there's a ray of hope. But like it was said here about 'Les Mis's' plot, 'Rent's' plot is depressing, too.
So, who knows? I have my fingers crossed.

And here, I thought this was a thread about The Pirate Movie
