Last night, I finally saw the movie version of RENT. It made me think, "why did I hate musicals a few months ago?" They're the perfect combination of music, one of my major passions, and movies, something I am a fanatic about. The story is developed through the music, making the songs relevant to what I'm actually watching instead of some weird correlation the director thought would work in pre-production. I've also found that the plot to a musical easier to understand and remember though some would say that they are oversimplified or convoluted romps through fantasy situations. Some would also say that serious narratives can't take place within something based around a whimsical tune. To these people I say, you're wrong.
Thank you for reading my first real post on this blog, I think I've finally found what I'm going to use for it. Hopefully going to have biweekly updates starting soon. Check back for another update soon.
