"Nine" could never be a great movie because it was never great to begin with. NO ONE was clamoring to make a movie out of it. Give Marshall credit for trying.

Just remember Sondheim was also involved in "Sweeny Todd" and praised Helena Bonham Carter, on camera no less.

Sorry to burst your bubble but "Into the Woods" isn't beloved either by anyone, except Sondheimites. The revival flopped, as did a free version in the park. The only reason Roundabout is doing it AGAIN is because they know they can get a very limited run sold. Once again, no one was jumping to make a movie in the 27 years since it premiered. Give Marshall credit for that too, or would you rather not have a film adaption at all?
