I wish I can see Broadway show . It looks fabulous

[@jacobwaldrop8604]

We just took a trip to NY and saw it, and it was worth every penny.

[@ChaosShadowBox]

If you put this on 1.25x speed, it sounds A LOT better

[@kchrules775]

For real, if they’re charging up to like $500 they can at least sing the song faster

[@tropigirl88]

i think if you customize the playback speed to 1.10 it matches the tempo of Robert Preston's version in the movie

[@waontheninja9017]

Jazz

[@jsong8282]

It sounds closer to the original

[@IlaughedIcried]

LOL, omg, you're right!

[@bookwoman53]

I saw a video of Seth MacFarlane performing Trouble at a concert and he was excellent.

[@stephenmkatzasc]

Merci… so great to wake up this morning and there was this joyful clip… a adding a bit of sunshine to a beautiful day in Provence. I would love to be in the audience. A bit far across the pond to NYC.

[@Logan.Jackman]

Thanks buddy.

[@stephenmkatzasc]

@@Logan.Jackman I ran across your reply today. I am a semi-retired DP living in Provence. Having grown up and worked in LA for most of my life in the industry. Since a youth I have a love of Broadway musicals. People would say I was living on the wrong coast. My claim to fame is the original Blues Brothers, there are 60+ other films. Every so often I get pushed out of my comfort zone to shoot a film. Last fall was shooting for Arte France in Newark NJ. Walked by the theater, unfortunately too early for previews. I would love to see the show. There is a possibility of a return trip for Arte in late Spring. Be great to meet you, even better to work with you. If you are ever in the south of France please stop by and say hello. Stephen

[@Logan.Jackman]

@stephenmkatzasc I went to the show in February, it was awesome. I hope you can go there. I have family in France (en Bretagne). I would be happy to meet you, I would try to come during the July holidays. If you go to NYC, come see me, it will be with pleasure.

[@stephenmkatzasc]

@@Logan.Jackman Thank you for your mail. Not knowing how secure this connection is I do not feel comfortable sending contact info. If you would like my email address & phone please call the ASC in Los Angeles. I am truly thrilled that we connected. Looking forward to meeting you. Stephen

[@LilianaStefan-y3z]

Either You help us, or My friend Will sing the entire second act of The Music Man without warming his voice!

[@OldManJenkins23]

I know they want to differentiate the modern performances from the original cast but I think the deviations in the melody and delivery kill a lot of the songs.

[@rivernorthhomes]

Theater actors and professional wrestlers are the best 1 take actors in the business

[@colin4758]

I wish I could’ve gone while it was still on Broadway.

[@keepingupwithjones9090]

Why did they not make this into a movie so everyone could enjoy it with Jackman

[@jimbaldwin5741]

Wow, it looks like a high school production.

[@laurierainier4600]

I’ll always think of my gma!!

[@donkorleone5188]

With a Capitol "T" and that rhymes with "D" and that's for Deadpool. XD

[@Gafweebo]

They gotta slow down these iconic songs for Hollywood actors😂

[@JohnYakooza]

Cassandra's done

[@MrSquareart]

Found your video on the reddit Post.

[@TheTaylor_Show]

If they changed the tempo this drastically for the actor’s benefit.. maybe hire a different actor? This is a long song and it’s being sung at a crawl…

[@Justmeforwhatitisworth]

Why is this number so slow?

[@LoveThatPhantom]

Please tell me this will have a soundtrack?!

[@IlaughedIcried]

It does!!

[@techlectics]

Robert Preston had nailed it and no one has even come close.

[@grouchosays]

Yup., I saw the original cast production with Robert Preston and Barbara Cook in 1957. This guy is like comparing Michael Buble to Frank Sinatra. But these people who go see this swill don’t know the difference.

[@eblackadder3]

I agree for the most part, big fan of Preston, but Craig Bierko was pretty close!

[@jdhiner1]

I cant believe that's wolverine lol

[@Toracube]

Robert Preston did this at 100 mph.

[@thewkovacs316]

is hugh singing off key on purpose?

[@davelay2656]

Wow, this is much too slow!

[@TheDustinExperience]

Hugh's style and accent don't work with this song at all.

[@LiamRoderick3304]

Hugh needs to work on his singing

[@MeaganWarncke]

Seriously? Robert Preston barely sang. It was more speaking on pitch and was fantastic!

[@colorblue7018]

too slow for my liking

[@alanberent4428]

It's hard to beat perfection. But, at least he tried.

[@JonnyContagious]

I thought Hugh Jackman would soar in this role. He seemed to be the obvious choice for a modern revival, but it simply didn't work. He wasn't able to imbue the part with his usual energy and zest; perhaps he was just too old; Robert Preston was 39 when he first played the role and Craig Bierko was in his mid-30s, but Jackman was in his early 50s - still fit, but it is unavoidably a different energy. Whatever the reason it is my biggest theatrical disappointment of all time.

[@_DORMIOAS_]

I mean it isn’t always the actor, it could be how the detectors want it. But yeah I can agree with you on some points.

[@achanwahn]

He's good, but he always sings too high and sounds monotone

[@jochenstossberg5427]

It's very average. If you were blessed enough to see the original production, or Craig Bierko in the last revival - miss this version. Robert Preston and Barbara Cook were brilliant.

[@walterwhite4862]

Don’t know if I would agree with you, I enjoyed it, but I would like to know before watching the original movie if you think that is a good representation of the original production at least in terms of quality.

[@jochenstossberg5427]

@@walterwhite4862 It's true to the original show Walter, but extremely stagey. It's like a filmed play. Harold Hill is meant to be sleezy, which makes the show much more fun because we don't want to see her hurt. In this production Marion comes across as a girl who might 'deck' Harold. All wrong. And Harold would never join in the musical numbers - he's looking for the exit from the get go. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@walterwhite4862]

@@jochenstossberg5427 What do you think of the 2003 TV film?

[@susan1981]

I don't like Jackman in this role

[@Kankudai]

Not good!
