Summary: Get Your Finger Out MGM
Comment: When will MGM get their finger out and release "RICH YOUNG & PRETTY" and "SMALL TOWN GIRL" on DVD, after all this is the 21st century, we now have a better viewing medium than VHS tapes.
These would have to be two of the least known but best loved movies that came out of the '50's.
For those that havent yet seen these movies, beg borrow or steal them to see great dancing, fantastic singing, and so so acting, but are must have in any collection.

Summary: "I have a feeling love in Duck Creek could be pretty wonderful!"
Comment: When handsome, big-city boy Rick Livingston, III (Farley Granger)speeds through the small city of Duck Creek, he is sentenced to 30 days in jail. He tries to buy his way out but Judge Kimball refuses. Eager to get out of jail and celebrate his girlfriend, Lisa Bellmont's (Ann Miller) upcoming birthday, he stages a hunger strike. But he eventually gets the feeling that the judge "just doesn't seem to care" if he starves or not. Rick convinces the judge's daughter, Cindy (Jane Powell), that it is his mothers birthday so she agrees to let him out of jail (fully aware of his real intentions to see his girlfriend)...if he will take her to New York with him.
As the story goes on, Rick gives Cindy a tour of New York before returning to Duck Creek and the two of them end up falling in love.
Once again, a great musical that's not yet on DVD!

Summary: ANOTHER GREAT MUSICAL FORGOTTEN !!!!!!
Comment: Billie Burke...Jane Powell...Bobby Van...Nat King Cole...Farley Granger...Ann Miller...Holy Cow MGM!!!! This is a starstudded musical that obviously has been left in the vault. All the junk thats on DVD and this sweet musical isnt? Dont you understand how many of us want these musicals? Its 2007 and the last release of this was what? 1995?

Summary: 4 stars for the stars, 2 for the film
Comment: This is another MGM musical in which you just ignore the plot and enjoy the numbers. Ann Miller - "I Gotta Hear That Beat"...Nat King Cole - "My Flaming Heart"...Bobby Van "Take Me to Broadway". Jane Powell was getting too old to continue playing the innocent maiden, but as usual turns in a good performance despite the material. Billie Burke, Glinda of the WIZARD OF OZ and Fay Wray, of KING KONG fame round out the cast.
