High Society Advantages: The characters, the music and the script Disadvantages: None High Society needs to be seen even if its just for the timeless 'what a swell party' scene with the legends that are Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby. It is not often these two greats sing together "we sing so rare." The great characters are my favourite element of the film, the music comes second and the script which includes some great lines comes third, for instance "shut up you fool" (Louis Calhern with a hangover talking to a bird singing in a ...

shall we dance Advantages: very good story line Disadvantages: bit boring in places ...this film. i really like the way it explores different opinions and shows different cultures. its downfall is that it can be a bit boring in places. it is set in Siam and follows the stroy of the king and ruler of that country and a very opinionated young english school teacher that has been sent across to help him and shows how difficult a clash of opinion can be. within this story is a sad story of love and how it is worth fighting for. the musical ... boo32 02.02.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of The King And I (Special Edition) (DVD)	Did you enjoy it?

rock! rock! rock! Advantages: Portrays some of the Big stars of the 1950's Disadvantages: Weak STORY LINE If, like me, you are a fan of REAL rock and Roll, and not the contrived, tuneless noise that is marketed under thename nowadays, then this is a must see for you. Featuring, Alan Freed, the man that first coined the phrase rock and roll for a white market, plus Chuk Berry, Frankie Lymon & the teenagers, and the only known film that Johnny Burnette featured in, this gives the viewer a real idea of what rock and roll music was all about. There are ... ...Johnny's brother, on stand up bass. A stand in was used at the last moment and it is clear that not only is he standing on the wrong side of the Bass (without having the strings switched!), but that he isn't playing anyway! Although films of this genre were generally pretty poor, this one stands out as one of the best. ...

Good Family Film Advantages: fantastic, wonderful, good family film Disadvantages: none ...sat and were mesmerised by the film. My middle daughter wanted to go out and get one of the dresses because she thought it looked so absolutely pretty. I thik that they should carry on making films like these that are timeless classics and you dont have to worry about what the kids are watching. Well Done. There should be more films that can be sat and watched by the entire family insteead of having to censor the programs or field difficult questions. ... janmattocks 04.07.2005 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of The King And I (DVD)	Did you enjoy it?
