Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.
View MoreIt is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
View MoreStrong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
View MoreBeing of an age to remember the white "4 guys" singing groups of the 50's/early sixties (4 Aces; 4 Lads; 4 Coins; 4 Preps etc) I was looking forward to seeing the DVD film made of this long running musical playing in local theater stages/clubs the last 20 years. I was not disappointed. The singing was flawless in the typical "pop" sound of the groups innocent era.The guys played some of the stage mannerisms of the groups for laughs, but with respect. Seeing the montage of the typical "Ed Sullivan Show" of the era was worth the price alone.The story line of the deceased "Four Plaids" seeking to finally play the show they were destined for (though the fame itself they would never get in the changing musical era) was bittersweet and you just can't help loving their naiveté and great voices. Very evocative of the era and I recommend it highly. This is fluff, but marvelous fluff.
