Sondheim wonders if Johnny Depp has the vocal chops for Sweeney Todd film

[Alex]

I can't find it now but I read something from Sondheim a few days ago saying that the movie "isn't a Broadway musical."

I may be misremembering the quote since I am not finding it again but whatever it was I came away from reading it with the expectation that "musicalness" was seriously curtailed.
