I loved the play on Broadway and when I was in high school and college practically knew every single lyric on the soundtrack. At the movie yesterday I started crying when the music came on and basically worked my way through a box of tissues. While I expected Hugh Jackman to be as fantastic as he was, I was pleasantly surprised by the high quality of singing from the rest of the cast, and the Helena Bonham Carter/Sacha Baron Cohen pairing stole the show for me. I also had to resist the incredibly strong urge to applaud after each song.
