In the Tap! Appendix for Marc Platt. He made too few (10) films, and only 6 are music/als. His other '47 musical is not available, so his next entry is Seven Brides... ('54). <sigh>

7+ or an 8-? Somehow it falls a little short of 8: it doesn't give me much joy after RH's dance in ch3. MP doesn't dance enough. The Greek Ballet in ch8 is deliberately bad, although the movements are good; it's bad because it's stuffy/artistic without being particularly beautiful. The final number is fun, but all those autumn leaves look like slip/fall hazards, so I'm distracted, and it's more running than dancing.

I'll stick with my prior 7, adding a +.
