[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 412156, member: 5079"] APPLAUSE was before my time, but there are clips on YT. It's ... not good. At the start of DEATH BECOMES HER, Meryl Streep plays a past-her-prime actress in a tacky musical version of SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH. I'm pretty sure that was parodying Bacall's stage work. I find it funny that Lucy got so much flack for her bad singing in the movie MAME, when Bacall won Tonys for her equally bad, toneless, deep voiced singing. I did see SUNSET BLVD with Glenn Close on stage. I thought it was fine. SUNSET BLVD is more florid than ALL ABOUT EVE, so I think it lends itself better to bombastic music. [/QUOTE]
