Best Worst Thing That Ever Could Have Happened... is a fascinating dive into the world of Broadway and the life of a musical after its initial reception. Directed by Lonny Price, this documentary captures the bittersweet nostalgia of the original cast from 'Merrily We Roll Along', reflecting on their journey over three decades. The tone is both warm and reflective, with moments of humor and heartbreak intertwined. You’ve got a real sense of the passage of time and how dreams evolve—or sometimes shatter. The pacing feels natural, allowing for genuine storytelling. What’s distinctive here is the raw honesty of the performers, their candid reflections on success and failure, and how this show, often criticized, shaped their lives in unexpected ways.
