Reviews

Gone With The Twins

Mike Massie

It’s all so whimsical and innocent, bestowing this classic with a sweetness, humorousness, and memorableness that can’t be ignored.

Contains one of the greatest set-pieces in American musicals.

Synthetic outdoor backdrops look oddly out of place in some scenes, but the show happily brims with gusto and melody. Howard Keel and Jane Powell top the cast.

Good tunes, humour, imaginative presentation and abounding vitality are welded together to make this film the most Memorable Musical of 1954.

The songs are not classic and the cast is exuberant rather than charismatic, but Kidd's energetic choreography triumphs.
