The forest is atwitter with enthusiastic word from tonight’s screening of Rob Marshall’s Into the Woods at the DGA theater. Someone calling herself Sasha Stone was in attendance.
“You could call this a darker interpretation of Into the Woods. Chris Pine and Anna Kendrick standouts. And Streep. Of course.” — Sasha Stone @AwardsDaily
“Streep’s first big song is just a shot to the heart. Better as witch than post transformation but she’s always great.” — Sasha Stone @AwardsDaily
“The play #IntoTheWoods seemed perversely funny. The movie is pretty serious with some laugh lines for levity.” — Sasha Stone @AwardsDaily
“Rob Marshall’s Into The Woods is the most dazzling screen musical since his own Oscar winning Chicago. Sublime Sondheim. A true winner.” — Pete Hammond @DeadlinePete
“Meryl Streep on whether she ever considered keeping the Witch’s makeup on after hours: ‘What makeup, darling?’ ” #IntoTheWoodsEvent — Yahoo Movies @YahooMovies
“#IntoTheWoods has made the transition to screen intact and full of life. A real pleasure, both clever and heartfelt.” — Gregg Kilday @gkilday
“Bravo! #MerylStreep #jamescorden #EmilyBlunt #annakendrick @IntoTheWoods #IntoTheWoods BEYOND! Saw on Broadway 1987, film worth the wait.” — Brad Bessey @BradBessey
“I think @AnnaKendrick47 is the MVP of INTO THE WOODS but a lot of the cast members were good. #IntotheWoods” — Nathaniel Rogers @nathanielr
“Depp is fine in short bit as The Wolf. This is gorgeous & expensive Sondheim. Applause for Streep and the opening number. @IntoTheWoods” — Anne Thompson @akstanwyck
