| he most likely had her sing through multiple takes until her voice was very tired. I hope not. That is mistreatment of an actor for sure. |

| Actually, he did just that, with her permission. But used an early one. "We did it upwards of 20 times, but it was the fourth take that Tom [Hooper, the director] came up to me and said, 'You know, I have it. That was the one. I don't imagine we're going to do better than that,'" the 30-year-old actress recalled during a recent interview with Yahoo! Movies (video below). "And I, of course, am like, 'No no no no, we gotta go, we gotta go,' and 'I can do it again...' And I never broke through in the same way again," Hathaway said, adding with a giggle, "So, at the end of eight hours of singing the song we realized we could have finished after the first 20 minutes." Per my comments below, I'd like to see takes 1-3. |

| Ha. What a deeply excessive waste of money and time, not to mention potential to cause harm to her vocal cords. Especially for a movie that is notably limited in scope due to trying to achieve it on a limited budget. To spend 8 hours on 1 scene when the direction felt confident she nailed it in the first 20 min... even give her another hour, maybe two hours. But any more than that, other than coming back to it another day, is foolhardy (and I say this as a director and an actor). (and i don't mean 2 hours total, I mean after the take where she nailed and, and after several more where he felt sure it wasn't going to be better than what was already done earlier -- if she didn't nail it, fine, do 5 hours... though after that, I mean, really, her instrument could have been ruptured doing any song for 8 hours let alone this one). |
