5.0 out of 5 stars It's not the story, it's the singing that's so beautiful, February 8, 2007
This review is from: Almost Angels (DVD)
When I was a young boy I saw this movie when it first came out and fell in love with it immediately. I couldn't begin to tell you how many times I've watched it, but it's probably close to 100. The story is a simple one, but it's the singing that is so beautiful to listen to. To me, this was one of Walt Disney's best films. The scenery is breathtaking, especially the mountains. I've been hoping & praying that the Disney studios would bring this out in DVD format, but so far it's a "no show." So many other films from the fifties and earlier have been reproduced in the DVD format, so why not this movie, that is based upon the Vienna Boys Choir. Everyone who enjoys a young boys treble voice should write to Disney to convince them to bring this movie out in a DVD. That way more people would get to hear the music of the great composers sung by these extremely talented young boys.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ordinary Boys, Extraordinary Music, July 17, 2007
By 
Marian Schwartz (San Joaquin Valley, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Almost Angels (DVD)
It is an era when the worst thing a group of pre-teen boys can be caught doing is a pillow fight after hours with the verboten transistor radio playing jazz. The benevolent authority cares for their growing pains as he exacts perfection in execution of some of the world's most glorious choral music ever written. The "almost" qualification to the angelicly pure bell-like voices singing music of the ages is the normal mischieviousness of boys. Celebrates friendship, perseverance, encouragement, loyalty, leadership, kindness. And gives us a chance to enjoy the Vienna Choir Boys.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Absolutely Beautiful Story, September 8, 2005
By 
Becky Andersen "mahjong buff" (Phoenix, Arizona United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Almost Angels (1962) (VHS Tape)
I saw this film for the first time in the 80's. It is one of the best I had ever seen. The story of a young boy who joins the Vienna Boys Choir when his voice is changing, and a lot of the choir's singing voices--it's a beautiful story. I had just bought my first VCR, so I taped it, which was a good thing since I haven't found this film anywhere since. I would highly recommend this to anyone! I would also very much like to see "Almost Angels" come out on DVD very soon!!
