I saw this with my friends, with out even knowing what it was going to be about. To put it simply, it was amazing!! If any of you guys have seen it, what did you think?
I'm not a huge fan of Rent like some people are, but I really enjoyed the movie. I looooved Rosario Dawson as Mimi, much more than I enjoyed the original cast member (although I only heard that one on CD, I didn't see her in the role).
I LOVE RENT! I've seen it 3 or 4 times in the theater.
But the film was REALLY dark. Somehow the musical doesn't come across that dark and depressing in the theater, but on film . . . . the material's darkest depths really came out. I only saw the film once. I don't know if I could take it again.
