Meryl Streep makes a very convincing witch in Disney's Into The Woods, right? I also must say shame on me for not knowing that Meryl Streep could really sing. After seeing the featurette for Into The Woods shown below, who else is ready to move in the woods?
“Into the Woods” is a modern twist on several of the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters’ wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), Jack and the Beanstalk (Daniel Huttlestone), and Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy), all tied together by an original story involving a Baker and his Wife (James Corden and Emily Blunt), their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the Witch (Meryl Streep), who has put a curse on them.
Rob Marshall, the acclaimed filmmaker behind the Academy Award®-winning musical “Chicago” and Disney’s “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” directs the film, which is based on the Tony®-winning original musical by James Lapine, who also penned the screenplay, and legendary composer Stephen Sondheim, who provides the music and lyrics. Produced by John DeLuca, Marshall, “Wicked” producer Marc Platt and Callum McDougall, “Into the Woods” will be released in theaters December 25, 2014.

I’m not going to leave a scathing review. Great cast, unworthy execution. Diplomatically, I will say, this was NOT my cup of tea. If you want a great musical, treat yourself to the DVD of the PBS presentation. You can’t beat Broadway legend Bernadette Peters, and Joanna Gleason won a Tony for her role as ‘The Baker’s Wife”. Track this down. You’ll be glad you did.
