Man, I’m tired. I worked from 6 to 12:30 last night. After that, out of curiosity, I stayed to watch Hairspray. My wife and daughters saw it yesterday and told me it was really good.
I agree. It is about time Hollywood brought us a musical that was uplifting and not a downer. Rent, although I’ve seen a video of the actual musical, was more of a downer on the big screen. Chicago was great, but just so angry. Hairspray was an uplifting, fun musical. Stupid? Yeah, in parts, but it’s been a while since I’ve seen a musical as fun as that.
More on this later. I’ve got to run. Going to get new glasses.
