They tend to try to support themselves on the musical performance, rather than the other talents required to make a great movie. This one is sweet, but not syrupy. I think this one is great, acting, singing, and directing are all superb. I adore Leslie Caron, and also Audrey Hepburn who played Gigi in the Broadway musical version (my favorite Hepburn film would be Breakfast at Tiffany's). Oklahoma, and White Christmas are other ones I like.
I'm a BIG Broadway/Movie Musical fan!!!

I lived on Staten Island NY in the daytime, then Broadway NYC at night.
Oklahoma is one of the Greatest musicals ever. I wanted to play Jud Fry all my life. oh well it's too late now unless they do a 65+ senior version, then I can play Jud Fry.
Hugh Jackson did Curly the TV version, it was Great !!!
Rumor has it that when I was a young man many years ago I looked like George Peppard's twin, maybe that's why I too love Breakfast at Tiffany's.

Handsome and elegant George Peppard occasionally displayed considerable talent through his career.

Quote:How about TORA TORA TORA & Midway, since I see you like combat movies
Quote:They are ok. I like Midway better than Tora, Tora, Tora. I find them both a bit tedious for the same reasons. The subplot in Midway of the pilot's interred Japanese girlfriend was stilted, and jammed into an otherwise mostly documentary film. I think they over did the cluelessness and bungling on the Japanese side.
I agree the love story in both Midway & Pearl Harbor (2001) ruined these movies.
