I'm on
record saying that Helena Bonham Carter ruined the movie version of Sweeny Todd with her awful singing. I hate to keep harping on Helena who is almost always a delight in interviews and seems to have a good perspective on celebrity. But casting actors who can't sing in movie musicals is a pet peeve of mine. She's in the new Les Miserables hence this post.
To prove my point I give you evidence:
Angela Lansbury
Patti LuPone
Julia McKenzie (starts at 3:45)
and finally
Helena
Who sang it best?
