Review by Anne Cook (posted on 24-Aug-2007)

I really enjoyed this movie seen recently on Turner Classic movies. The music is delightful and for me evokes the original broadway show that I saw in the early fifties. The lead was Alfred Drake but Howard Keel in the movie acts with gusto and has such a richly expressive voice. the dancing is amazingly winning especially Ann Miller performing solo Its Too darn Hot plus The virtuosity of choreographer Bob Fosse. So good and animated was the performance of KeenAn Wynn in Brush Up Your shakespeare. This has to be my all time favorite musical!
