Did you like it for the plot, or for Matthew McConaughey?
Right now I am watching for the umpteenth time "Mama Mia." Love the music. I have the whole score.
When that came on Himself said "is this all music?" He's very cautious ever since the "Jacques Brel Incident". *
* I knew one of the cast members (Theresa Piteo) from another show we worked together. I wanted to see it at the then-being-restored State Theatre, where it was being performed Cabaret Style (small round tables with seating for two to four) instead of theatre seating. About the third or fourth song he leaned toward me and said "is this show ALL singing? " When I nodded meekly he whispered "if we hadn't paid so much for these tickets I'd leave right now". He's been afraid of musicals ever since. BTW, Cliff Bemis was also in that show. He's had quite a career as an actor ever since.
FWIW: In 1973, "Jacques Brel" was produced by Ray Shepardson in the lobby of Cleveland, Ohio's State Theatre. It was intended to play for two weeks, but continued through 1975, with a 522-performance run that remained the longest theatrical run in the city's history for many years. The performance is credited as a major factor in the rescue and restoration of the theater and its adjacent venues, which are now Playhouse Square Center, the largest theater complex in the USA outside of New York City.
