Any guys seen this movie?


hey, I was just wondering if there are any guys here who had seen this, and what they thought of it! I'm about to force a guy i know to watch it, and was wondering what the general concesus was.

I seen it many times. In fact, I'm currently watching it now. I own the DVD of the film since last Christmas. I also have 7 other Minnelli films on DVD.

I am a guy who watches a lot of musicals, and I did not enjoy this particular one.

Yes, I watched it today (Thanksgiving day) on TCM. Looks like it's been remastered since I last saw it, and the technicolor is more beautiful than ever. One of Judy Garland's best- up there with OZ and STAR.

(SPOILERS, OF SORTS) Oh, sure-- I remember reading that Minnelli made a kind of history with his long, unbroken shot of the extinguishing-the-lights sequence, and how almost the entire 'Autumn' chapter centers around Margaret O'Brien, and how it nicely segued into the main dilemma of the film- the announcement about New York; and then finally mom and pop singing 'You and I' at the piano (even though Leon Ames was dubbed by Arthur Freed). All in all, a very nice package. I like to record it and just skip to my favorite parts: the long-distance call at dinner ("HELLO, WARREN!!"), Halloween, all of wintertime, 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,' attack of the snow people, and so on.

This is not a "guy" movie. Sure you can watch it from Lon's or Johhny's POV but it's essentially a gal movie.
