Can I marry Bill Condon please?

I saw Dreamgirls yesterday! It was EXCELLENT. Exciting! Shiny! Loud! Epic!
When I walked in I was thinking grumblestupidChicagostupidmusicalsIhateamericanidolgrumble. But, I saw the error of my ways in the first 10 minutes. I loved all the characters, all the acting, and all the sets and costumes. Good stuff, folks. It's enough even to celebrate Kinsey and Gods and Monsters without the garish stigma that is Chicago. Yay.

Just had to spread the word.
