Title: Very disappointing production
Product review: This was one of those movies which we should have left in the past! We had very fond memories of it, but in spite of excellent re-mastering, the content was very flat and wooden. Ann Blyth, who we generally like very much, was hopelessly miscast, and the rest of the cast, including the great Howard Keel, found very little to get excited about in their roles. Musically, apart from a couple of famous numbers, it had very little to offer. The highlight was the performance of Marjorie Main and Bert Lahr; particularly in a scene in the extras, which had been deleted: obviously because the director felt they would have taken over the whole movie, if it had been included! Think carefully before buying!
