A Question Re: Enchanted And Susan Sarandon...


Was Meryl Streep too busy?

Was Glenn Close out that day?

Don't get me wrong, Sarandon is a great actress. Oscar great.

But wicked witch/stepmother? That's not Sarandon.

That's Streep. Or Close. Or Helen Mirren. Or Judi Dench.

And if you have to use Sarandon, why not give her a song? She can sing. Isn't there a "I'm so evil and I hope I can kill the girl" song left in Alan Menken's repertoire?

Okay, that's more than one question, but still...

or, in the tradition of british panto, how about you?

and now you see how easily I am stumped...

I assume "how about you?" is some sort of traditional in-joke or line in a British pantomime?

Am I close?
