I prefer "Perestroika", which is where all of the delicious drama takes place - but I didn't fully love it until the revised version, which includes Kushner's cuts but also a great many other changes as well (including using some of the structure from the miniseries, though not, alas, including the miniseries-only final scene between Hannah and Joe). And while Prior going to heaven could still be shortened, his final scene with the Angel is breathtaking.
I'm in the minority, but I find "Millenium" a bit dull; it's a nice, tidy build-up to the chaos, and while it does its job well, it doesn't excite me in the same way as the back half. |
