Sweeney Todd

Wow. I've been waiting for this movie for a year now, and it was so worth it! This writers strike better end for the sake of the Golden Globes, because I want to see this film win every one it was nominated for

The whole movie was beautiful: the scenery, the acting, the costumes, the SINGING! And the bloooooood!
Spoiler Below
When Sweeney kills Judge Turpin...OMG! He's all *stabby stabby stabby* and I'm all *gag* OMG! THAT'S AWESOME! And then you think he's done and then he's all *SWOOSH* with his razer for one last cut! OMG!


I was also happy that no one in the theatre

noticed that the beggar woman was Lucy. I kept thinking, "Oh noes! I want it to be a surprise for those that don't already know!" and luckily, when it was revealed, everyone was all "OMGZ!!!!"


And ohhhh...

when Mrs. Lovett is thrown into the oven at the end...and you see everything...


The By The Sea bit was probably the funniest part. The look on Johnny's face in every scene was enough to get me going.

And the

part at the end where Sweeney is holding (dead) Lucy and then Toby slits Sweeney's throat......that last image is left with me forever. It's just.....aaauuuggh, I can't even put it into words.
What a poetic final image.

A downside: the people behind me talking throughout the whole movie and laughing at places that weren't even funny. Please, indulge me! I wanna laugh too!
