| I agree that the direction and staging of "Adelaide's Lament" gets in Vivian Blaine's way in the film -- too much business also with all those bottles in the medicine chest; she doesn't have to show us -- she just has to "be", and she was plenty full of character just by way of hearing her on the OCR. However, there is, as you probably know, Alan, but maybe others aren't aware -- video footage of Blaine and Sam Levene doing "Sue Me" in the London production. No, Levene can't sing like Sinatra, but he sure as hell can become Nathan Detroit, and Vivian Blaine is firing on all cylinders - vocally great, acting engaged (with a super "Lament" sneeze for emphasis) and wonderful chemistry with her partner. | |
