The musical does a worse job setting up Joe and Kirsten as people.

However, does a better job than the movie does setting up the daughter as a real, three dimensional person.

Thanks! The daughter is very young for most of the movie.

So I'm going in thinking I'll just enjoy their singing, but then not to expect too much from the music (I love love Piazza and Floyd Collins).

It's one of my favorite films, as gut-wrenching as it is, and I think it has some of the finest acting of that era. That's the 1962 movie. I'm not even sure how/when I first saw it - probably not in the movie theater at age 8, but I think it was kept off of TV for some time, due to the adult nature of the plot.
