Seen the show twice in London...I love Billy Elliot. Seen the show twice in London amd in September at my local cinema. I loved the live broadcast and even though I was anticipating a couple of changes in the DVD release, I was unprepared to see just how much changes had been made. Steadicam shots took you out of the live feel shots that the live broadcast was full of. Also, far too many fade transitioms were used and fast cutting almost spoiled one section for me. I am happy I purchased the DVD but it would have been far more cohesive and just generally better looking had they just released the broadcast version with a few minor technical tweaks which were apparant during the broadcast. The rawness of the live even was overwhelming, this DVD doesn't compare.I mean, they even colour corrected one scene?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
