    Set in New York City's gritty East Village, the revolutionary rock opera RENT tells the story of a group of bohemians struggling to live and pay their rent. "Measuring their lives in love," these starving artists strive for success and acceptance while enduring the obstacles of poverty, illness and the AIDS epidemic. RENT is based on Jonathan Larson's Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning musical, one of the longest-running shows on Broadway. The raw and riveting musical stars Rosario Dawson, Taye Diggs, Wilson Jermaine Heredia, Jesse L. Martin, Idina Menzel, Adam Pascal, Anthony Rapp, and Tracie Thoms and is directed by Chris Columbus.

    I agree with some of those that are saying the ending that was left in the film fits better with the movie. The stage ending is beautiful and heart breaking but considering this wasn't an actual stage production and a cinematic film, the way Angel is captured at the end of the original ending is still beautifully heartbreaking as she was the last person we see before credits start rolling. Not to discredit this ending. Both are beautiful.

      I agree with you but it would still make some sense since the opening scene is on a stage?

    Both endings are beautiful. I still get teary eyed as we see Angel as the final person, the one who tied them all close.
    However the empty spotlight, symbolizing loss among friends. However she comes back to her spotlight showcasing even though she's gone, she's still part of them. It also ties in at the beginning of the stage, when we hear Tom really give alot of emotion to his lyric "or the way that she died". I love both endings but this gives alot more emotion, even if it's just because of one empty spotlight and a small reappearance among her friends. Beautiful movie/play overall. One of my personal favorites

      That's very poignant, and with that said, it should have been the true ending to nicely accentuate the film's ending as a way of showing to cherish life and not take it for granted as time passes. But it would be even better with the others who have HIV or AIDS to leave the stage after Angel until there is no one left except for the ones who survive with them not forgetting their friends and loved ones.

    Amazing. I still wear the Original Grey w/ black RENT, close to 30 years later, still answer questions, or share stories. You all are amazing- not sure what this is for, but it works. This is NOT just a show- it’s life. I tell people it’s NOT about being gay or HIV+ it’s about being alive. So, from a rural grandmother, celebrating 40+ years of marriage this month, thank you for making even my husband enjoy your great interpretation of Steven’s work🌹

    In my view this endingt does tie in with the beginning of the film. But to make it work better Angel does return and stand in place to finish the song but then at the end Angel should have disappeared/vanished like the others with AIDS did in the song Without You ...Or the cast begins to vanish once Angel returns leaving only Angel left at the end...

      @rzawilski 3 года назад +5

      The first half - where Mark plays his film - is the same. But when it cuts to all of them onstage, and Angel walks out, that’s where it deviates. On the DVD version I’ve always seen, it stays on the film and the last shot is of Angel. I’m interested to see if they changed it from the theater to the DVD tho!

    Why is Angel alive?!?!
    edit: I'm joking lol, this was the reason why the producers changed the ending, they think that people might be confused seeing Angel 'alive' again
    Also this original spotlight version of the ending has Benny included, the movie removed some parts of Benny's song, esp the parts where he is in good hands with the other characters, thus the movie paints him as a villain with no redemption arc, so it will be off to see Benny singing with them in this finale (in the movie version, at least)

      Symbolism xD
      OK, let's not just leave it at that. Rent is originally a stage play, and at the end of it, Angel comes back and joins the other characters in singing the last song. That doesn't mean they're literally alive, it just means that their memory lives on beyond their death. The movie's opening with Seasons of Love and this ending are a nod to that: an addendum outside the movie's universe existing only for metaphor and emotional impact. I agree that the other ending works better in film.
