Okay, we went last night and saw "RENT." We weren't sure how it was going to turn out for us, but I have to admit we enjoyed it immensely. I thought some of the liberties they took with the movie were very artistic and creative and added to the story...couple of things that stood out for us:
1) I liked how they showed Roger's GF finding out she was HIV+. I think it would've been more powerful to show how she died....that part was omitted.
2) Seeing the shot with the Twin Towers...it took me aback for a moment, but then I realized it made sense because it takes place in 1989.
3) I loved the "Santa Fe" scene....very creative!!!
4) I liked the end of Mark's documentary as well...very powerful....
