Negative Positive
Title: A Tru Classic
Review: Having seen several versions of this classic on stage, including the USO production in Heidleberg, Germany, in 1968, I can easily recommend this video. Although some important scenes are either left out or just shown in passing, this video captures the spirit of Romberg's music quite well. The addition of "I'll Walk With God" seems to have been put in only to showcase Mario Lanza's talents; I think it is not a fitting adjunct to the accurate telling of Romberg's tale.I originally saw this film when it was new; I was 9 years old. My 11 year old sister and our Mother went along. After the show was over, my sister was perplexed. She asked Mother, "Which one was Mary O'Lanza?" We still laugh about that today!A good follow-up to this film would be "Deep in My Heart," the Sigmund Romberg story, starring Jose Ferrar.
