MY REVIEW OF “THE PROM” NOW STREAMING ON NETFLIX:
IGNORE THE NAYSAYERS! And FAKE comments/reviews saying it was “very bad, they hated it, & James Corden especially ruined it-written obviously by people who did NOT SEE IT and just wanted to “hate post” or has a CONTEMPT for the Musical Theatre genre and art form-- thinking it’s “only for the gays” and thus worthy of ridicule and derision.
I’m sure THESE SO-CALLED CRITICS must be harboring some serious self-loathing as “closet cases” themselves-thinking it’s cool to bash an AMERICAN ART FORM.
Yes, Virginia...FYI the Broadway Musical is America’s cultural gift to the world.
THE PROM is just the kind of movie musical we needed to escape from the harsh realities of Covid-19, a whiney sore-loser of a potus, refusing to concede and plotting mean-spirited ways to make life more unbearable for Us and the new incoming administration, unemployed and soon-to-be-homeless and hungry people on breadlines, etc.
It’s not a perfect movie (but then again no movie is 100% ‘perfect’*). But DOES IT ACHIEVE what it intended to do? My answer is a resounding YES!
[Sidebar: I have a simple, basic or general criteria for what makes a good movie “very good” aside from its storyline, cast, & production values, etc. Is if it delivers what it’s supposed to deliver. A drama moved me to tears. A horror movie gave me enough scares. A comedy made me laugh. Etc.]
Having loved and seen the original Broadway musical 3x, THE PROM is one of my favorite NEW original musicals. Which btw is NOT an easy thing to write and compose.
The story of an LGBTQIA 🏳️🌈 teen seeking acceptance and wanting to ‘be seen and loved as her true authentic self’ in her community was not only moving but also relevant in today’s times of reinvigorated hate and prejudice.
When I heard Meryl Streep, James Corden, Nicole Kidman, Andrew Rannels, Michael Keegan Key, and Kerry Washington were cast to do the movie version , I had my doubts. “How can they top the original Broadway cast (OBC)?!”
But in the expert hands and vision of director Ryan Murphy, everyone in the cast from the lead stars and ensemble in this movie version brought on their A-game. There were no weak performances.
It still honors and stays true to the story, message, & spirit of the stage production but with extra benefit of location shoots and expert camera work by cinematographer Libatique is able to EXPAND & does MORE back stories to flesh out its characters more. Example: James Corden’s Barry Glickman’s relationship with his Mom (played by Tracy Ullman).
And puhlease! Stop this pretentious, snobby, artsy, stupid comment that “the movie is NOT as good as the original”. Of course, it would never be. To say so, just exposes your IGNORANCE in not realizing that the STAGE THEATRE & MOVIES are 2 “different mediums”. What might work for one may not work for another.
The 1986 movie version of A CHORUS LINE is a good example of a great, Tony-award, Pulitzer prize winning stage musical not being able to transcend its stage roots. The “black box” that worked so magically onstage was dead and boring on the big screen. Now seeing what Ryan Murphy did to The Prom, I am more excited as to what he’ll do with his vision and version for A Chorus Line which will be another movie musical (to remove the nasty aftertaste of the Richard Attenborough ‘86 flop version) commissioned by Netflix*.
The more high-strung over-the-top performances of Beth Leavel and Brooks Ashmanskas onstage would NOT WORK and would be too much for the movie camera. (Another good example to illustrate my point is the movie version THE PRODUCERS where Tony award winner director/choreographer Susan Stroman was unable to “tone down” the performances of Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick that was too loud and too broad when transferred to the big screen.*)
And IGNORE the backlash of James Corben as Barry Glickman-he did a great job! I think MOST of the panning is resentment of the fact that Murphy cast a straight/cis guy for the role. Anyone who says that his portrayal of a gay man was “too flamboyant and too ‘caricaturish’ obviously DID NOT SEE ASHMANSKAS’ BROADWAY PERFORMANCE! I could sense the respect Corben had for his character of Barry, and his effort to ensure that he did not come out as a shrill gay stereotype. In fact, he and Emma (beautifully & touchingly portrayed by newcomer Jo Ellen Pellman) are the HEART & SOUL of the movie’s story. I have to admit that there 5 scenes that moved and brought me to tears and DESTROYED me.
Miss Pellman’s Emma is so likeable and vulnerable that you want to hug and protect her yourself but later on you marvel at her ‘growth’ and in discovering her strengths, self-confidence, and self-acceptance. You truly want to go on with her on her journey and want her to succeed. Her character is not one-note but multi-layered and so much so that you truly empathize with her plight (& Barry’s...ALL of them in fact.)
Ariana Debose fresh from HAMILTON (and will be playing Maria in Spielberg’s new movie version of WEST SIDE STORY) holds more than her own vocally and in her acting chops. She shows great chemistry with Pellman and you truly believe them as lovers.
Andrew Rannell OBC of The Book Of Mormon, of course brings his famous Broadway credentials and gravitas to the movie.
Nicole Kidman is just amazing and beautiful in this movie. She’s the supportive and caring PAL you would want to have and hang-out with. It’s a testament to her acting ability and professionalism to accept a minor/supporting role as forever CHICAGO chorine Angie Dickinson and leave her indelible mark on the role (which I thought the original Broadway actress Angie Schworer’s take on the role would be hard to top). Here she is “an Angel with antelope legs” who unselfishly comes to the aid of and supports her friends and Emma. Ms. Kidman proves again why she is one of our most versatile and most talented actresses. She was obviously having fun singing and dancing in this movie and truly embraced her character with so much heart.
Michael Keegan Key’s rendition of “We Look To You” was hauntingly sentimental and heartfelt and brought home the reason why we love the Theatre and why it’s very important in our lives-especially with the ongoing Pandemic and Broadway still being dark, this musical number was made more relevant and resonated more for all the theatre geeks among us.
Kerry Washington’s homophobic, intolerant Mrs. Green is deftly handled and she portrays her not as an all-out evil bitch/monster but as a human mother with human fears who has yet to learn acceptance of her daughter’s identity/orientation. She (and a brief but powerful performance by Tracy Ullman as James Corden s Mom, Vera*) represents ALL those parents struggling with their child’s orientation and self-discovery of who they are and who they want to be in the world. You get to understand that they are NOT evil people but flawed parents who are just as equally disoriented, struggling to find their footing and keeping up in a rapidly changing society/world.
And MERYL STREEP...what else is there to say? I had my serious doubts as to how she would handle and deliver Beth Leavel’s two show-stopping numbers that required a good amount of belting and lung power: IT’S NOT ABOUT ME & THE LADY’S IMPROVING. Folks, I can proudly say that she DID. From the light and funny/comedic moments when she plays a narcissist Diva to those quiet, vulnerable moments when she shows her human side as DeeDee Allen falling for Key’s High School Principal character Mr. Hawkins, Streep brings her signature excellence in each scene. Watching her is a watching a Master Class in acting. Every glance, a shrug of the shoulder, a walk or step is very nuanced and imbued with meaning-there is never a throw-away moment with her. Whether she’s the focus of a scene or in the background listening and reacting to her co-stars ‘La Streep’ never disappoints and always delivers.
It’s to Ryan Murphy’s credit that he retained original choreographer and director Casey Nicholaw to recreate and expand his awesome dance moves/choreography.
As much as the main theme/message of THE PROM is about acceptance and fighting bigotry, hate, & prejudice. I urge you to DO THE SAME, & ignore the MINDLESS, INSANE, HATEFUL COMMENTS on this thread by “fake self-professed gurus & experts” who at its core really don’t know what they’re talking about and most likely DID NOT SEE the movie with their general hate comments which they cannot explain as to “Why”. (Which they just do for shits and giggles while typing in their dark dank dingy rooms or trailers.)
It’s ALWAYS the ones who know NOTHING who like to make a lot of noise, who protest too much, and pretend they know more than they really do.
SO IGNORE THE HATERS. BRING YOUR FAMILY & FRIENDS & GO TO “THE PROM.
Trust me, if you go in with an OPEN MIND & an OPEN HEART-you’re IN FOR A TREAT and WILL LEAVE WITH A SMILE ON YOUR FACE & HOPE FOR OUR WORLD.
Remember: “LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE IS...” -Ad Infinitum.
you could be arrested even in 2020 in many countries. which is extremely sad.
