I'm with Albert on this one....I can handle purely modern or anachronistic
interpretations just fine, but found the mix of modern and peri-oid
disconcerting and unimpressive.  Yeah, I "got" it, but I didn't *like* it.
Ditto something like "Moulin Rouge."  The disccordance between rock music
and historical pieces just does *nothing* for me.
--Sue in Montana, who actually has rather eclectic musical tastes, including
a fair amount of rock.....
