The songman in the London theatre production was brilliant and set the scene,time and place.


For Speilberg to have overlooked them [songs] for the film is to my mind an error of judgement.


The book is an easy read as one would expect from a gifted author.

I would have been anticipating the songs of Tams in the film but must reserve judgement on what Williams has come up with.I may not even go and I seldom go anyway

I still think Speilberg will have missed a trick, maybe he needs a line from Ricky G to bring him round. perhaps when the remake comes out in 20 years time the songs will be included.
