When the movie hurts the play....

Posted by:	Glamourboy 04:53 pm EDT 05/07/15

I remember reading an article waaay back about how the Rosalind Russell film version of Gypsy ended up having a negative effect on the stage version..in the sense that it seemed to diminish the audience's interest in the original--and there was a big drop in productions of Gypsy in the US. What other misguided film versions ended up hurting the original movie or musical... The few I can think of: On A Clear Day You Can See Forever, Paint Your Wagon, A Chorus Line, Annie, Nine.... Any others?
