...natural, unmiked sound. She enriches Lovett with a lifelong ardor for Sweeney and a pixilated fondness for romantic fancy. < He believably underscores the improvisatory quality of Sweeney's first murders, turning him from a monster into a man who howls piteously over the body of his beloved wife, lost and too late found. As corpses pile up in the apocalyptic finale, this version urges spectators not only to think but also to feel...
