Negative Positive
Title: Love the films, love the music--
Review: As has been said in other reviews, this DVD (which I original saw on TCM as well) is a strange, moving, sometimes boring, but generally wonderful time-trip back to another era. (I still don't really get "Santa Claus vs. Cupid," but, hey, it doesn't bother me...)I am one who thinks the music is haunting, strange--and perfect for this collection. It does add a touch melancholy to the procedings, but it works for me. Some of the most beloved Christmas songs are melancholy--look at "Have yourself a merry little Christmas" and "White Christmas"--looking back in memory, expecially of Christmases past, can definately involve a bit of that.
Is the review positive or negative?
