Stephen Sondheim died today at the age of 91. Back in 2013, FrankRichNY wrote this remembrance of their decades-long friendship
awards. At this point, so much has been written about his career that it’s hard to find much new to say about it. Besides, Sondheim often says it better than anyone else. The most transparent of artists when it comes to explicating his craft, he has given countless interviews detailing his methods and motives, meta and micro, song by song and show by show. But the man himself, the guy behind the work, can be harder to pin down.
When plotting our film, Lapine and I had a running mantra: �Steve has his story, and he’s sticking to it.� We discovered that we could cut from a black-and-white clip of a twentysomething Sondheim to an interview decades later where he’d pick up the same anecdote mid-sentence without losing a thread. Nor is Steve one for changing his stand on the fundamentals.
