countrycousin I greatly admire the movie version. I posted a rant some time ago that it wasn't out in DVD. It now is. I have my copy!! Rant hereby withdrawn.
They did this version on stage, and a DVD of that has been available. But the production values of that release are not good.
This one was designed as a movie and benefits greatly. (although the ending is rather Blazing Saddlish - I value Gilbert and Sullivan and what Ronstadt, Kline, Azito, Lansbury, Smith, Rose do with their material). Azito got left off the credits on the cover - pity, IMHO.
The dynamic range didn't seem as wide as I recalled - but my hearing decays, and I don't trust the memory.
I recommend it.
