Rating: - Huge Disappointment
If this video didn't have a few minutes of Ethel Merman singing some of her signature tunes ("Blow Gabriel," "You're the Top," "Anything Goes") this would be a total waste of time.
HUGE sections of the play (including subplots and songs) have been cut to fit into the tv time slot - and, Frank Sinatra is miserably miscast (though sings beautifully). Oh. And the film is grainy and dark.
Worthy only as a curiosity.
(2stars in stead of 1 because it IS fun to watch Ms.Merman)
