Product Details


Product Description

From Amazon.com

This nostalgic history lesson in the treasures of MGM musicals touches upon the obvious highlights--An American in Paris, Singin' in the Rain, many others--and includes clips of wonderful though more obscure performances by Esther Williams, Jimmy Durante, Eleanor Powell, and even Clark Gable singing and dancing. It's a film lover's box of candy and perfect for musical mavens, and getting a chance to see so many legends host the whole affair (many of whom have died since the film's 1974 release) is as pleasing as the old footage. --Tom Keogh

5.0 out of 5 stars Decades of MGM Movie Magic Flashing Before Your Eyes!, July 17 2002
By 
Michael Mathena "Michael Mathena" (Valley City, Ohio) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Gene Kelly, Liza Minnelli, Fred Astaire and many other MGM Stars narrate segments of this compilation documentary of Hollywood's Golden Age. There are both well known and obscure song and dance numbers from countless MGM musicals.

See Clark Gable singing (and dancing to) "Puttin' on the Ritz" as well as Judy Garland's Classic "Get Happy" number. This fantastic tour down MGM-Lane is 90 minutes of pure Entertainment! No one who views this gem of a film will ever again question why Mickey Rooney, Fred Astaire, etc. are today considered legendary figures in cinema. May Leo the Lion roar on forever!*...

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING!, July 14 2002
By 
This film really does have the best scenes from the best musicals without you having to sit through a hundred different movies.
The film is split into several sections with each section being devoted to either a star or a type of musical although Judy Garland does recieve 2 sections devoted to her, one by a very aged Mickey Rooney covering her early career and one by her daughter covering her classics.

Not only is this film good to watch because of the amazing musical numbers [the Busby Berkley and Zeigfeld ones are AMAZING] but it is also extremely amusing to watch straight actors atempting to sing [Elizabeth Taylor really takes the cake].

Its nice to see all of the hollywood greats coming together to make a movie although Clark Gable and Judy Garland to leave glaring holes where they should have hosted sections and it would have been better if the film were made 10 years earlier as quite a few notably Peter Lawford have passed their sell by date.

All in all it is very nostalgic and brings togethrer the best of the best is a star studded tribute!
