  • Her acting beats are just sooo specific and alive it's unreal!!! She's a Beast on the stage!!!

  • glenn is amazing i love her the acting in this performance is amazing and her singing is brilliant too oh and she looks gorgeous too (: <3

  • @avesraggiana Don't forget Barbra Streisand's sparkling performances of "As If We never Said Good Bye" and "WIth one Look". I'm a Streisand fan, and even I am willing to admit that nothing else comes close to Close as Desmond.

  • @broadwaybeat No, she doesn’t, and in this role, as Norma Desmond, she doesn’t need it nor should she use it if she did. The Betty Buckleys, Elaine Pages and Patti Lupones and Petula Clarks blow Glenn Close into the weeds when it comes to Broadway singing, but not for one minute did any of those great singers convince me they were Norma Desmond. Glenn Close’s approach to playing Norma Desmond, of an actress who happens to be singing, works better for me than a singer who happens to be acting.

  • No one does it like her, everything from her body language to the tiny quirks in her face to her trembling voice.... PERFECTION

  • omg .... I can't stand it, so wonderful it hurts!

  • @broadwaybeat

    Well, if she doesn't have a broadway voice then those who have are no good at all.

  • she doesnt have a broadway voice. end of story.

  • Its as if she never left the stage, she owned this performance as if she did it daily still.

  • @DvoinoiBekar it really is isn't it! It is one of my favourite performances ever, and I think the best performance! This song and 'With One Look' are amazing by Glenn Close, such character.
