>> The show's reputation is based on its profile and global status as a treasured family film

I am not in any way confusing the stage version with the film. I wrote that I consider SOM a masterpiece because that is exactly what I feel.

One of my greatest pleasures in - well, to be honest in all of theater, hell in life probably- are the lyrics of hammerstein and these rank with the very best of his work. They are an astonishing accomplishment, to me fully deserving of the term "masterpiece". They are part of a whole, they exist in conjunction with other things contributing to and, again to me, helping elevate this work to the level accurately described by the term.
