Great writing, awful music

Just saw this for the first time last weekend, and I really thought the writing was quick and clever. The music, however, is TERRIBLE! I cringed when that theme song played for seemingly the 10th time during the film. Regardless, I would recommend this movie...

I love the theme song, it is a beautiful song.
Its one of my favorite movies too.

Actually, I like the song too, but the endless repetition in this movie is indeed grating.

I love the theme song in the movie. Of course I could be prejudiced since I played Doris in a college production a few years back!

... I admire a person that's willing to do whatever is necessary.
