    Kinda slow, but funny. Well done job by Peters and Patinkin.

    The 3 stars is just because of the brilliant music. Other than that, this is a disgrace. Maybe I've been spoiled by seeing the beyond amazing revival with Jenna Russell and Daniel Evans {who are both thousands and thousands times better than Miss Peters and Mr. Patinkin, in both ...( read more)terms of acting AND singing} Plus, the costuming in this is horrendous! TWEED? Oh-k then. *shudders*

    Stephen Sondheim's brilliant portrait of artist George Seurat as told through the characters in his painting "Sunday Afternoon on the Isle of La Grande Jatte". Seurat was an artist that some deemed genius and others found not worthy a glance (and it holds true today). He would ...( read more)use tiny dots to fill his canvas instead of typical brush strokes. Through Sondheim's musical we get to learn about the man Seurat. There are two acts. Then (during Seurat's life) and in the 80s (we meet his great-grandson).
    Sondheim's darlings Mandy Patinkin and Bernadette Peters are nothing less than wonderful and the clever and very smart Tony Award winnng set designs are just enjoyable. Co-created by James Lapine who also worked on "Into the Woods" with Sondheim.

    Loved it. Sondheim is a genius, and Pantinkin & Peters are a joy to watch.

    A terriffic version of a superb stage play.

    I thought this movie was wonderful, a little long but wonderful indeed!
  • January 3, 2007
    The story of a tortured genius and the stories that take place behind the scenes and on the canvas.
