Viewing Notes

Dazzling. Just blown away. Great way to experience this for the first time. Went to the Broadway show 10 years ago and was amazed by that so not surprised this movie is so good.

35mm print nearly flawless I often forgot we were watching it on film.

Great way to end this semester at IFS.
