These three movie musicals are classic representations of a true American art form - the musical. All three feature timeless performances of great american actors and actresses. Any complete movie collection should have these three and what better way to buy than as one package. Granted there are very few extras but how often are those watched, for me rarely.

3 wonderful MGM musicals at a great price together. Not the greatest MGM musicals but they're up there with the best. For sheer entertainment on a cold, indoors-type of day, these 3 musicals will warm your spirit with a stroll down yester-year. Memorable tunes, big screen name actors, wonderful color and dance numbers lend themselves to a superb product that's been remastered digitally to fit the big HD screens. If you're looking to replace old VHS tapes or just need 3 movies to fill a void, this disc won't disappoint you.

While this set doesn't include all the extra material dvd's at this price it's still well worth it for these great musicals. They are indeed classics as the title states. My favorites would be "Meet Me in St. Loius" and "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers". Not very found of "The Music Man" but the package is still cheaper than what I would pay individually. The movies speak for themselves.

I thoroughly enjoyed this collectors edition of some of my favorite musicals. The Picture color and clarity were unsurpassed. They will bring hours of enjoyment as I watch them in the future.

Great musical classic that my whole family loves. There are others that I have not been able to get or find, such as "Many Rivers to Cross", Tammy and the Bachelor", Mother was a Freshman" and a few more. Sure would like to find these on DVD.

Three great movies in one. It may not have the special features that you would get if you bought the movies in a single pack, but seeing as how they are older movies this feature is not missed. A good buy if ever there was one.

So far, I am very happy with the set. The first DVD we used worked well and the box set is set up nicely.

The quality of all 3 DVD's is excellent in terms of quality of sound and color. The reason for 4 vs. 5 stars is due to packaging and price. I only wanted 2 of the 3 movies and would have preferred a different package arrangement. As far as all 3 movies, they are as I remember on the big screen. I travel every week. Being able to watch and listen to older musicals in flight makes time pass quickly and allows extra comfort when turbulance is encountered. Seems they bring joy to many as I find other passengers straining to see what's playing on my computer. Unfortunately, they don't get the benefit of the beauty in the music. Hurrah for the Classics!

What a great set.. Perfectly put together and a must have for anyone who loves musicals...

I bought this movie set for my girlfriend this past Valentine's Day, and she loved it. These three classics are timeless, and a lot of fun to watch over and over. This DVD set is a must own.
