Editorial
Review
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.
