Jonathan Larson's musical will be heading to the big screen, Directed by Lin-Manuel Miranda
I presume it will be a small indie film like The Last 5 Years was.

Speaking of small indie musicals what ever happened to Hello Again? Came out mid 2017 and was ripped to shreds (29% on Rotten Tomatoes), suspect it failed to get a distributor in the UK |

Speaking of small indie musicals what ever happened to Hello Again? I watched it on Amazon. Not as bad as I was expecting plus an extra song for Audra so not all bad! |

Wow!
Saw it tonight at the cinema.
I am simply gushing.
Look out for all of the Broadway cameos.
The whole Sunday in the Park sequence- wow!
You can see all of the references and nods towards Rent.
Andrew Garfield IS Jonathan Larson
Just go and see it!

It will have finished by the time I find a screening in my neck of the woods! I’ll just wait a week for netflix. (But I can’t wait…it contains so many if my fave mt songs).

I do like the look of this film but I’ve not seen RENT yet (despicable I know, but it is on my list I promise!).
Will I be alright or will I need to see it first to understand the film?

I wondered about this as it's readily available for me and there were no new releases which much appealed (certainly not the heavily-promoted Mothering Sunday) but - heresy I know - whilst I like stage musicals, I tend more to plays than MT and particularly don't like filmed versions of musicals as I'd rather see the show live. So, question for those who've seen this, please: is it more like a film with music about the writing of a musical, in which case fine, or is it more like another filmed musical?

Unfortunately, as I have never seen this show staged I am not in a position to comment as to whether this is a filmed musical or not. If I had to pick from the options presented I'd say it's more like a film with music about the writing of a musical. Hope that helps. |

I've just seen this in an almost empty cinema. I didn't know the show before but thought this film was fantastic.

I thought this was absolutely brilliant, one of the best films of the year for me. Andrew Garfield is sensational as Jonathan Larson, and is a much, much better singer than I thought he would be. A stunning performance that I hope gets some nominations. Also loved Robin de Jesus as Michael, and I loved all the Broadway cameos (there are seriously a lot of them!). I didn't know any of the music going in, and not being a fan of the Rent music, I was a bit apprehensive, but I loved the score to this.

There's a great interview with Andrew Garfield on last Kermode and Mayo's film review from around 52nd minute.

Listening to the soundtrack now on a car journey. Why these songs haven’t entered into musical theatre consciousness as much as Rent is beyond me. So so gorgeous.
