Going into this, I just thought it would be a straight-forward video recording of a live performance of Rent. It became apparent early on that this was going to be SO MUCH MORE! The editing alone for this movie should be applauded. It somehow managed to make you feel like you were in a theater, on Broadway, watching Rent. The cuts were fast and artistic and framed Rent well. This is what the film version SHOULD have been. Really a great experience and made me fall in love with a score and story that I've loved for over 10 years. Definitely worth seeing and I hope there are plans to release both a soundtrack and DVD of this version!
