8 Oscars lady, Hollywood celebrated the musical in a big way as the sexual revolution and racial tension of the sixties loomed.

I adored it.

I must admit i didn't think i would.  Not a big fan of musicals, but this one tickled me in an innocent place in my mind.

would probably only watch it once every few years, but  it was worth the time.

Go for it.
