You thought that I’d forgotten again, didn’t you? I haven’t. Actually I think about Best Women quite excessively. Sometimes I do so with a huge manic smile upon my face that makes my cheeks hurt and frightens passer-by.

One thought that keeps coming back into the forefront is an idea I had about a year ago about how Best Women would make an awesome musical. Not like a Sound of Music “we’ve got a song for everything” kind of musical, but like a Sister Act “we’ve just got a few numbers that fit in very naturally” kind of musical. In the original draft of the screenplay, there were two musical moments anyway, but since then, I’ve had three others that I desperately want to put in. And for some reason, it really seems like the right thing to do. So, yeah, it’s gonna be a quasi-musical. And it’s gonna be tight.
