Several weeks ago, we watched a 1998 re-make of Sweeny Todd (not a musical) that starred Ben Kingsley. Not a lot of blood and gore, and, well, since it starred Ben Kingsley, you know it was good. LSA
I’m not familiar with that version. But with Kingsley, I’d like to see it.
I’m most familiar with the Sondheim stage version with Angela Lansbury (she won a Tony for her performance as Mrs. Lovett).
