Not only (I’ve heard) long and boring - it’s Part I - meaning there will be an equally long and boring Part II.

I have no interest in seeing it although I did see a Broadway production years ago when it came through town - and loved it.

Wonder why Hollywood drew it out so much and didn’t stick to the Broadway production which ran about two hours and covered the entirety of the story.

That’s just it. Everyone who is seeing the movie, already saw the play, and knows how it turns out. So what’s the point.

There’s a reason that Broadway plays adapted for movies usually don’t do well at the box office.
