“Rent”
2005
Confession: I’ve only seen parts of this film — on TV, yet — but it was enough to make me agree with the consensus that one of the most powerful musicals ever conceived had been flattened and drained of inspiration. Seeing East Village types with AIDS singing and dancing on a screen somehow took the “boheme” out of “la vie” and made me hope they never turn “The Normal Heart” into a movie musical.
