    For those that have seen Hairspray, how does it compare to the recent film version? I enjoyed that one a lot.

    I enjoyed the recent one, but it's no where near as good as the original. Also it's not a musical. I definitely recommend seeking it out.
    Only the gentle are ever really strong.

    I do like that one. Travolta cracks me up but I am a huge John Waters fan from way back.
    I think it was NBC that did the recent live version. That was OK made entertaining by Harvey Firestein mostly.

    Travolta was tremendous in that.
    Eastasia has always taught college students to feel pride or shame according to their race.

    Loved it, but I thought Firestein might die during the live show. His gravely voice was much worse than I ever remembered.
