Viewing Notes
Movies like this make me want to do an entire project for Musicals. Not sure how I would scope that but it would be fun. Everyone is so great here and totally in their element. The ensemble pieces are the best but a few of the pairings are pretty good with Sinatra/Garrett’s being my least favorite of the couples performances. Of course any/all with Vera-Ellen are on fire. She’s amazingly talented. Would love to see the Broadway production of this in NYC of course.
