She has won a Tony, an Emmy and a Grammy. This is her bid for an Oscar.

We can pause and our home theater is far more comfortable.

I don’t like Cynthia at all. She should stick to stage productions. I’m curious about Arianna in this because she got her start on Broadway.
I will just wait to hear what the non-paid critics say.
The NY Times gave Cynthia a rave review and called her the best thing about the movie.
Paid critic.
Lol. So you value some rando whose expertise isn't compensated by a trusted publication. Got it.
This is the kind of person who says, "Yeah, I know the long-time Washington Post restaurant critic said it's terrible, but the Yelp ratings are great! So, we're going to Founding Farmers tonight!"

I wished there was just a little more time spent showing their friendship develop. It seemed so rushed in the movie, it's hard for me to imagine that it wouldn't have felt too abrupt in the stage show. Does it?

Is this Tik Tok influencer induced nonsense ?
