Because I still have those moments where I'm like, "Oh my God, I'm a loser, what am I doing?"
I really think that the 'Jersey Boys' musical - and this is just my opinion - lends itself to being cinematic in some way, because it's a jukebox musical; the characters break into song only for the scene transitions.

Whether it's animated, whether it's live-action, whether it's Broadway, whether it's television, a musical is a musical is a musical.

I hate to think of a day where a compelling book or a compelling authorial voice would be lost simply because that person doesn't have a Web site.
