Catchy Tunes; Light & Breezy
|
| The singing voice of Peter Lawford will not blow you away; there are no huge stars in this movie; yet, the songs, witty Comden & Greene script, and energy of the performers make it an often overlooked gem of the MGM Musical library. June Allyson leads the way as a totally believable college girl who must work her way through school and doesn't get the man until the end. Peter Lawford gives a nice performance and dances up a storm as the college football star. The picture is incredible; razor sharp and bursting with technicolor splendor. Mel Torme has a small part, and although his singing adds a nice touch to the movie, it's hard to believe him as a college student. A few nice extras; one deleted musical number which denies Patricia Marshall another solo turn (but rightfully so; it would only have slown down the nice pacing of the film), a theatrical trailer, and two numbers from the 1930 version. Although the two numbers are very dated, they are fun to watch, and it's a shame they couldn't put the entire movie on this disc. |
