MGM (Video & DVD), 1999
Timeless Animation
Director George Dunning's "Yellow Submarine" (1968) represents a landmark achievement in the history of animation. Like the Beatles' music, the film has a timeless quality. Though the Fab Four's association with the project certainly helped, it was the endless ...
Serenade

Joan Fontaine
Warner Home Video, 1994
Winner
Supurb acting and a great musical score make "Serenade" an easy favorite of Lanza and Opera fans alike. Another movie that will merit repeat watchs not only for the story line but especially for the musical score. What a great talent! Beverly J Scott author of ...
For Me & My Gal
Judy Garland
,
George Murphy
MGM (Warner), 1992
A Slam Dunk
The "Ballin the Jack" number by itself is worth the price of purchase. Some reviewer here stated that Garland would not turn in a truly Oscar worthy performance until A Star is Born. That person did not see this film. Garland in For Me and My Gal turns in a ...

The Pirates of Penzance
I saw this version when it first came out on video in 1983. It created a love for Gilbert and Sullivan as well as operas. Angela Lansbury and Kevin Kline make this version the very best there is. They are funny and witty as well as suttle. The sword play by all, is ...

Great Dancing, Lousy Story
I recently rewatched this movie, which I've owned for years, and I must agree with the other reviewers that the plot is absolutely laughable, especially the scene in which Julie Kent has a mild breakdown on stage during the Mad Scene. Julie Kent is lovely and a fine ...

Please bring this great movie back on DVD
Back in the 1950's, I saw "The Glenn Miller Story" and became a frantic fan ever since, even to the extent that I played baritone sax and clarinet in the Ray McKinley/ GM orchestra back in 1957 for a short period. I've had the VHS of the movie for several years, but ...
Merry Widow
Maurice Chevalier

Jeanette MacDonald
MGM (Warner), 1993
Jeanette MacDonald in her greatest role
THE MERRY WIDOW is arguably Jeanette MacDonald's finest film, and is still regarded as one of the greatest musicals ever made by MGM. The story concerns one widow, Sonia (Jeanette MacDonald), a beautiful young woman who owns 52% of the small kingdom of Marshovia. ...

Kathryn Grayson

Red Skelton
MGM (Video & DVD), 1995
A wonderful and colorful musical!
I never thought I'd enjoy it as much as I did. Katheryn Grayson and Howard Keel, sing there way into love, and also this films has the lovely dancing couple Marge and Gower Champion along with the ever funny Red Skelton, and beautiful and talented dancer Ann Miller. ...
Bundle of Joy
Eddie Fisher

Debbie Reynolds
Turner Home Ent, 1998
Not just for "little" girls
This is a great movie. Some romance, but not so it's overwhelming. You'll get some good laughs out if it too. I believe in some other reviews they tell you the plot, so I won't give that away here. This isn't just a good movie for "little" girls. I'm a "mature" ...
The King and I
Deborah Kerr
,
Yul Brynner
20th Century Fox, 1999
Yul Brenner's Best Role
In my opinion the role of The King in "The King and I" was best played by Yul Brenner. Debra Kerr was an excellant choice for the counter-part of Anna. Together they gave the movie class and enchantment. I have loved this movie since my childhood days, and had to add ...

I'd druther this musical!!
Al Capp could not have asked for more when his satirical masterpiece of a cartoon strip was turned into a musical. The songs are great fun the characters well cast and the satire is still apt now."The Country's In The Very Best of Hands" goes one song that still ...

Eleanor Powell
MGM (Warner), 1995
Romance in Romanza
If you like musicals and are Young at Heart, you will fall in love with the beautiful Eleanor Powell and be mesmerized by her athletic prowess. Throw in Cole Porter's elegant, rhythmic music and you're hooked. Forget a complicated plot; if that's what you seek, find ...

Shirley Jones

The music lives on
I sing the songs from this movie for days after playing it and truly enjoy having a great DVD copy instead of the old VHS. The quality is excellent and I received it before the expected date.
Let's Dance
Betty Hutton
,
Fred Astaire
Paramount, 1996
I Can't Stop Talking About It!
This is one of the best, and funniest movies I have ever seen. It is absolutely hilarious and made me burst out laughing. Fred is a genius. Though I think his performances in Top Hat, Follow the Fleet, and Swing Time were better, this is extremely good. Betty Hutton ...
Look for the Silver Lining
June Haver
,
Ray Bolger
MGM (Warner), 1998
One of the few June Haver films currently available.
From 1944 through 1953 June Haver brightened up about a dozen 20th Century Fox movies -- mostly musicals. A beautiful blonde with long beautiful legs, Haver exhibited a rare combination of talent, vitality, and innocent charm. None of her films -- including this one -- ...
