I'd like to be clever and say the title and release year is the best
thing about the movie, but there are some really good parts in this
musical. Sadly the songs really aren't one of them. They sound nice
individually, but don't connect the film as a whole.
That's not to say the songs are bad, its just that the story is way, way
better. The characters and their struggle in trying to get a musical
going in depression-era times is extremely compelling. I just thought
the large musical numbers - how can he afford that for $1000? - were
just silly.
