Not to start the topic up again, but...

...today NPR's "Fresh Air" hosted by Terry Gross has an interview 
with Richard Zanuck, a film producer, and in the first 10 or 15 min. 
or so they discuss getting to make the film of Sondheim's "Sweeney 
Todd". It doesn't reveal a great deal, but Sondheim was actually 
quite involved in the process, including the casting! It includes a 
tiny amount of Johnny Depp singing one of the songs.

The show is likely available on one of your local NPR stations, and 
the audio will be on-line on the NPR website around 6:00 p.m. ET, if 
anyone wants to listen to those few minutes...
