This 1950 film production featuring the songs of Irving Berlin is truly a sentimental journey into the musical past of Broadway.
We all remember the great songs, There's No business Like Showbusiness, They Say its Wonderful, Doing What Comes Naturally and Anything You Can Do. They sure sounds romantic and nostalgic and throws you back to the days of the Roger and Hammerstein era.
Screen-played by Sidney Sheldon, it starred Howard Keel and Betty Hutton as they entertained in sheer abandonment in this great movie of yesteryear after Oklahoma! Betty got the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in this movie.
Sadly, music rights discord between MGM and Irving Berlin in 1973 prevented the movie from being shown to the public until 2000 when it was re-released to the public on the 50th Anniversary of the film. After that there were also other Broadway revival of this Annie Oakley tale.
Great Broadway adaptation!
