@23Shinin23 Nor do I think we'll ever hear such a perfect version of this duet ever again. White and Hayman are perfect.

@berowne9 Beautifully said. I couldn't agree more.

Sheer perfection. What a gorgeous duet, what phenomenal singers. There's no greater proof than this that sublime art stirs something unique in the human soul.

One of the most beautiful love duets of all time. Turned out to perfection by Haymon and White.

They are wonderful. It's too bad they were asked to lip sync their obviously prerecorded track. The unnatural "realism" of their acting undermines the strength of the music... the energy which a singer displays when really singing heightens the drama rather than detracting from it, as the director seems to think.

These two are pretty awesome!

@pphleboman It was the fusion of Jewish European and Black African musical styles that fueled the genius of George Gershwin and others of his era. There is nothing like it being created today.

I am the only one who is deeply struck that music will never return to this beautiful form?
