    This musical got me through 5 months of chemo, 30 sessions of radiotherapy, surgery and two years of adjunct treatments. I was fortunate enough to see Hugh Jackman in Auckland, when he came to New Zealand, with his An evening with Hugh Jackman show and his guest star was Keala Settle, and her song reached me on a whole new level as I had ugly scars and felt mutilated from my multiple surgeries. I still listen to the cd in my car a couple of times a week.

    28:12 Regarding what you said about Rebecca Ferguson not singing the song we'll here shortly...Loren Allred was hired to teach Rebecca Ferguson proper breathing so she could perform the song. After some tedious rehearsals, Rebecca suggested that they have Loren actually record the song and she (Rebecca) would just lip-sync it for the film. "Since I'm going to lip-sync for the film anyway, why don't you just have this angel sing it instead?"

    I saw this in theaters with the whole fam. We were running late, so we ended up in the front row to one side, craning necks to see it. I don't remember anything but crying through most of it because I was seeing on screen how music hits me. When the horses pranced on in rhythm to the song, I actually yelled out loud. Combine that with This is Me and From Now On (Never Enough didn't impress me much), and it was my own personal fever dream.
    Love it!

    I LOVE musicals! I’m not a singer, but I do love to sing. I cried when I first heard This is Me, simply because it spoke to me. I wasn’t in theatre because it was strictly only the same few people the last 4 years of high school.
    I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone else cry to this film as much as I did. 😂 I would say this is my new fav musical (Grease is now second.) Musicals are my favorite movie genre, but I won’t actually tell anyone that because most people I know just don’t understand why unfortunately.

    Love. This. Movie.
    The first time I heard about this film was in November of 2017. I was sitting in my local cinema, waiting for ‘Justice League’ to begin. The preview’s are running and the music for “This is Me” starts. I was mesmerized from then on. I spent the next two hours and change thinking not of Batman and Wonder Woman and Superman but of popcorn, peanuts and the center ring. I rushed home after the show and found my girlfriend sitting on the couch, her laptop open in front of her. Before she could barely utter a word I commandeered her computer and brought up the trailer for ‘The Greatest Showman’ up on RUclips. She loved it as much as I did. For the next month it was all we could talk about. The day it opened we were nestled in our seats in that auditorium with no idea how we were about to be blown away. Afterwards, before we even made it to our car I had the soundtrack downloaded.
    Absolutely love, love, LOVE this movie and I’m so glad you did too, Jonathan!

    2. Hamilton (it's on Disney Plus)
    3. Tick Tick Boom (Another *great* movie with a great cast)
    4. Sound of Music (Don't let the reputation fool you, it's a great and important story)
    5. Sister Act (I have never met someone who hates Sister Act)
    Most of the musicals I grew up with were animated though.

    You need to watch the 1986 TV movie "Barnum" starring Burt Lancaster. To me that's the best bio-pic about Barnum. You'll be amazed at it's style of storytelling, I can't think of any other film that does it like that and so well. I don't know how much is fictionalized, but it's capitvating regardless.

  • @Allwayspsychic
