I may have to dig up a copy of the original songs. I've only ever seen the movie, so I didn't realize there was that much of a difference. Now I'm curious to hear what got cut.
I love the smell of desperate librarian in the morning.

Spike's Bitches 43: Who am I kidding? I love to brag.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The show I'm working on right now is about Lena Horne, and has her version of Lady is a Tramp in it. It also deals with her interactions with L. B. Mayer (the Mayer in Metro Goldwin Mayer). For those who complain about the ludicrousness of how crappy movies get made with big budgets, it was worse under the old studio system.
We can argue about the quality of films between then and now, but the production process was much worse back then, in terms of how the moguls ran their ships.

I designed one of the first revivals of Babes in Arms back in 1998.

I think Lady is a Tramp and Where or When may be the only two songs that made it from the stage to the screen.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
A few verses of Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered got cut for the movie. The "horizontally speaking, he's at his very best," and "Vexed again, perplexed again, thank god I can be oversexed again" verses.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
"horizontally speaking, he's at his very best,"
One of the best lyrics ever.

No. The discussion on not knowing how to pronounce things...
Some peeps here already know this, but I thought it was The Inkses.
