I'm sure you're joking about NINE... it doesn't even matter what he cut or kept, he ruined that movie (and the opinion anyone who only saw the movie has of the musical). Given that ITW is a much more beloved and known musical than Nine, and that Lapine wrote the screenplay, I think it's less worrisome than Nine in the first place. And I don't think anyone would make ITW a movie and cut "No One Is Alone"... however there will be cuts, I'm sure, that will upset and disappoint people, like myself, and those people will argue, rightly I imagine, why those songs were integral and meaningful to the musical and why the movie would probably have been better with them, or how stupid it was to cut them but not replace them with something else that didn't compromise the integrity of the show. (for example, I think it's public knowledge that the Agony reprise was cut, which I think is a terrible idea... and I know Rapunzel does not die in the movie, which I also think is a terrible idea and I SINCERELY hope it doesn't mean they cut or changed too much "Witch's Lament", one of the most emotional and beautiful parts of the score, and integral to the themes and meaning of the show). However, I have been told by a friend who is a huge fan of the show and who saw a test screening, that the version she saw was very good and legitimately faithful to the show. There have been changes but apparently nothing that upset her too much.
