My closest of friends and family members would know that I love musicals. If I could sing through my entire life, I probably would but it would sound like Les Miserables – “I dreamed a dream in time gone byyyyyyyy…” – so I don’t bother.
But as much as I love musicals, I had no clue about The Last Five Years. Zilch. Na-da. It could be a good thing because I would then have absolutely zero expectation on the movie since I did not even know the existence of the stage version. With that said, I sort of expected a musical version of One Day. It’s not exactly like One Day though.
