Claims that Sweeney was real, and
refutations of those claims.
I wanted to add a couple of other things I really liked in this version. "By the Sea" was gorgeous, especially the nearly-catatonic Todd throughout. Also, casting strong comedic actors in the secondary roles (Pirelli, Turpin, Beadle) allowed them to bring forward a strong level of melodrama without tipping into self-parody. Also, who hasn't wanted to do in Sasha Baron Cohen the way it was done in this movie?
