Goodness, Stacy...what reviews were those? Anything on TCM is always
very nicely written up....see below....even if some movies aren't
repeatedly screened due to lack of high profile stars or awards.
There are SO many movies out there that just because the numbers on
the requests to DVD are low really doesn't mean much. Many movies
have historical value. For instance, the music in this movie was
perfect for the 1920's, in which the story was laid, and the
composers of the score worked on two excellent autobiographical
movies for both Eddie Cantor and Al Jolson...as well as composing the
music for the very famous and successful "A Star Is Born."

And, no matter what, I'd say Blake Edwards is laughing last...all the
way to the bank.... since he's a very successful producer and
director (this was merely his second foray into direction), AND he's
happily married to Julie Andrews, to boot!
