I always thought the biggest problem with the musical of "The Goodbye Girl" is that we were supposed to be on Paula's side and against Elliot until she (and the audience grew to like him)
They cast Martin Short, whom the audience was IN LOVE WITH the moment he walked on stage, which made Paula seem like a hateful shrew, (no matter what the story told you to feel).
They needed to cast a brilliant NON-STAR as the obnoxious at first Elliot. |
