Movie Review by Jessica Film Junkie
March 21st, 2007

Gulp

There is nothing quite like seeing Cyd Charisse dance. She is long and lean with the most incredible set of gams in screen history. Like a modern dance ballerina, she commands those around her with her movement.

There is nothing quite like seeing Gene Kelly dance. Strong and muscular, he redefines what a dance man should look like. He is powerful and magnetic, a leading man in dance shoes.

However these two were not right together, each has a formidable presence on their own, but when they dance together it seems like they are fighting for your eye, confusing the viewer.

It doesn't help that this is a pretty bad musical to begin with. Not even the great Vincente Minnelli can save it.

Dull.
