Drew's Billing

Great movie, a soundtrack that you can't get out of your head (Don't buy CDs as a rule but I immediately bought it online after watching the movie) and agree that the songs were definately snubbed by the Academy. A great story line, acting AND singing by all but why didn't Drew Barrymore get a higher billing in the movie? She was a leading lady!

I can't seem to find the CD, where did you get it?

Also I think they did the billing by who was on screen first, and since Drew wasn't in screen until like, ten minutes into the movie that's why she wasn't billed higher.

She was billed TWELFTH!! The freaking DOORMAN was billed before her, and he wasn't on screen til way later. There are days when Hollywood makes me crazy.

He wasn't on screen until later, but he appears in the film before Drew does. It's clearly in order of appearance.
