This is a decent film and has some really nice numbers by some of the great MGM stars of the day. Mel Ferrer stars and does a nice job of filling in the time between the numbers. It is a little slow in parts and probably could have used 20 minutes cut out, but it's still worth a look. Other stars include Walter Pidgeon, who does a nice job in a smaller part. My favorite musical number comes from Jane Powell and Vic Damone. They were perfectly matched in this film because they had the two best voices. Jane looks simply stunning in her long, ruffled, white dress. My other favorite has to be the song and dance number by Gene and Fred Kelly. This is the only time they appeared on film together and they don't disappoint. Howard Keel rounds out the great numbers near the end with a nice number backed by male vocals. Overall not perfect, but the three musical numbers I mentioned are worth watching.
