Little Shop of Horrors (film)/Tear Jerker

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Anyone who's seen Audrey's reprise of "Somewhere That's Green" as she dies in the original ending knows that had it been left in, she would have won an Oscar.
    • The musical build up to the dramatic chord actually makes this troper feel a bit of sympathy for Seymour, even if the whole situation's his fault.
    • It's even worse in the film than in the musical, for several reasons. Seymour had just proposed to Audrey, and they were about to elope together--she was in her wedding gown, for crying out loud! Plus, when Patrick Martin shows up afterwards, he finds Seymour standing at the top of a building, tears in his eyes, all ready to jump.
