Sweeney Todd on PBS

‎09-28-2014 10:46 AM

Creepily wonderful!

Emma Thompson was amazing and yes, that was Audra McDonald in a supporting role and Philip Quast as yet another villain. (He was the best of the Javerts ). The music isn't hummable but very memorable and was given its due by a full orchestra, not synthesizers. Much darker than the original production or film and not for the sensitive.

Wish it had aired closer to Halloween. It's the ultimate scary ghost story.

Thanks for the post. I'm going to DVR it later today when it airs again. I've only seen the movie, but I really liked it. Looking forward to watching. Thanks, again.

We are all sitting here today watching the recording of this wonderful wonderful presentation. Just so enjoyable. I actually saw this show in London my home town and am loving this - so glad you Ladies enjoyed it too.
