But the evening's most unexpected kick is the dynamic dance musical wrought from a show known principally for its book and score. Auds will go in humming any of a half-dozen cherished Frank Loesser songs and come out knocked sideways by the footwork: The first-act "Havana" number comes close to heaven. The question isn't whether "Moulin Rouge" crooner Ewan McGregor, playing the sexiest, sweetest Sky Masterson imaginable, can cut it singing live --- though he does quite capably, complete with the occasional head voice that holds the note. Just as crucial is the realization that the boy can move. Whether sweeping up a Cuban native (the impossibly leggy Summer Strallen) during that Havana jaunt or joining his fellow gamblers for an impulsive terpsichorean outpouring on "Luck Be a Lady," he does his bit to sustain the momentum. And when the steps get too fancy? McGregor's smart enough to get out of the way. (中間跳過直接到結尾) All McGregor has to do, it seems, is grin, and the entire house swoons, which makes Russell's clarion-voiced, sensitively acted Sarah doubly commendable. (After "I'll Know," it's poignantly clear from her expression that Sarah isn't at all sure about the ways of Eros.) McGregor's tenor, in turn, may have its metallic moments, but thesp delivers where it counts, Sky's emerging heart at one with a production that traffics not in glitz but truth. And then, when it starts dancing, whisks you away with it. -- 怎麼好像大家都說Ewan只負責耍帥(笑) -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 203.70.99.177
