VHS Movie Reviews of Rich Young & Pretty [VHS]

Movie Review: Fabulous Musicals of the Fifties
Summary: 4 Stars

- you can count this one among them. It is worthy of viewing and re-viewing especially since, "Wonder Why" sung superbly by Vic Damone was nominated as Best Song back in '51.

But this one's a-got-to-have IF you're a true Damone fan! As I was way too young to have seen this at its original release in 1951, it was a treat to see Vic at his youngest and in his most debonair role as Frenchman, Andre Milan. Miss Jane Powell, as well, cute as a button ....they sure made a bunch of movies together....(here she is as a strawberry blonde).

Vic is comfortably suited in the role luring the lovely
Liz (Jane) off her Texas ranch.

You'd be surprised as I, to see a youthful comic Hans Conreid ( got to be before joining the "Danny Thomas Show" cast) and of course, Fernando Lamas - two stars in their own genre...plus an agreeable up-tempo number by "The Four Freshman".
Remember this group ? But my greatest surprise was how come we in TV-movieland have never seen this one ?! This unknown film nicely blends together French charm and Texas ingenuity and truly would be a musical plus for Franco-American relations. Take the ageless "Deep in the Heart of Texas"
( cute little French version of it as well ).

Other tunes include: "There's Danger in Your Eyes" ( quick flashback to 1927 by a surprizing look-alike to Ms. Powell, Danielle Darrieux playing her long-forgotten mother )....the romantic, "I Can See You" (separated duet) and
another cutie is "We Never Talk Much" repeated much more convincingly by Vic and Jane singing also that great "The Old Piano Roll Blues" - another American classic.

MY PERSONAL RATING: C'est Meraviglie !
