Comment on Confirmed: Paul Thomas Anderson helped rewrite ‘Napoleon'

I mean I’m in the minority in that I liked the film, musical scenes and all.

I got the point of the musical scenes – I just didn’t think they added much of anything to the film. I felt like they were extremely distracting given the tone, as well. I may have felt differently without Lady Gaga. I don’t think she pulled off the kind of freneticism that would have made the music work better.
