| You have a good point there. No, it's definitely not silly that the other actors play dual roles because that's the way Stine sees them. He takes people in his real life and re-imagines them in their reel life. I just don't think that Stine actually sees himself as being Stone, but he wants to be as cool and confident with women as Stone is. I think City of Angels is a really great musical, IMO Cy Coleman's masterpiece. Everything works perfectly. At least that's the way I see it. Hey, you are ten times more knowledgeable than I am. You actually work in theatre, while I'm just a fan. I have tremendous respect for you and enjoy your posts immensely. I just have a soft spot in my heart for City of Angels, probably because I love film noir and the great scores that are associated with it (like Raksin's Laura, Rozsa's Double Indemnity, Steiner's The Big Sleep, many others). I think Coleman's Broadway score is as atmospheric and effective as their film scores are. I doubt if it will ever be made into a film, but hey, you never know. Maybe Netflix will do it some day. I just disagree with your vision for a film version, that's all. I'm just afraid your idea would screw it up and movies are forever. |
