I know, it's weird that I've never done a musical. I turned down two of them. 'The Lion King' and 'The Producers.' I turned two of the biggest Broadway musicals down, am I a mess?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I mean, I've done musicals, but it's not my best thing.
You see, it took me so long, it was such a struggle, to move myself out of musicals - because I had had a success, nobody wanted to allow me to direct a non-musical picture. It was so hard. And the only way I could get it going was to become a producer myself.
I've loved musicals ever since I saw 'The Lion King' on Broadway.
It's almost scary how amateur I am when it comes to musicals - I'm a musical goer, but I am not as obsessed with musicals as perhaps some of my theatrical friends are.
I hate musicals. There, I said it.
I hate musicals, especially film musicals.
I wasn't planning on doing musicals, but that's how I started.
I grew up in a time when the only musicals were animated musicals because nobody wanted to see people to break into song.
The thing about movie musicals is that there have been some brilliant ones, but when they're bad, they're really bad - big white elephants.
I have to go back to my younger days, when I just adored Hollywood musicals.
