Sweeny Todd

Did anyone else see the movie Sweeny Todd just because there was a cool looking straight razor in the picture? I'll admit I did. I actually enjoyed the movie. Not too many musicals are rated R.
 
Yeah it was fun to watch, I have heard that the original musical was better (and was longer) but I've never seen it.

It wasn't rated R in Australia though.
 
I didn't watch it for that purpose the first time I saw it, but after starting DE shaving and watching it again I did.

What I thought was interesting was that back in those times with just some of the equipment that most members on this forum have, you could open up a shop a start barbering..
 
Any time I try to explain my new shaving hobby I get, "Oh like Sweeny Todd"? Eh, not exactly. It's a fun musical but he goes a bit beyond BBS...
 
saw it, thought it was alright, the singing was bearable (i dont mind some musicals, little shop of horrors and the like :) but i saw a little of it again the other day and it was really annoying so i think it gets old quick. hes really bad at stropping in the shave off part too.

I think that was the only part of the film I really enjoyed. The rest was kind of tedious and the songs/singing were not all that great. I also think that they should have taken creative license and changed the name of Adolfo Pirelli to Adolfo Proraso. :001_smile

it was definately one of the better parts, i just wouldnt really want to be shaved with that blade after the edge had been scraped along the strop like that.
