I wrote that my source was a biography, not the musical or the film based on it. Balanced judgment is a virtue for historians, not for dramatists. If Shakespeare had written reinactment scripts, he would have been a better historian, but a worse Shakespeare. Now, Tim Rice is definitely not a Shakespeare, but did a reasonable job. Lloyd Webber's contribution is quite interesting in many passages, but if he had really decided to become a serious opera composer, he would have ceased to be Lloyd Webber.
