Editorial Reviews

Campy musical stars Eleanor Powell, Dennis O'Keefe, C. Aubrey Smith, W.C. Fields, Cab Calloway, Sophie Tucker and Eugene Pallette. Loaded with specialty numbers; contains the now-famous number where Eleanor tap-dances her way inside a giant pinball machine. 86 min. NOTE: This movie has been manufactured by a small but reliable supplier and is 100% guaranteed. While this movie has not been digitally restored and may not be nearly as good as a big studio restoration, we offer this kind of product when it is the only print available and collectors ask us for it, regardless of quality.

This review is from: Sensations of 1945 (VHS Tape)

Serious aficionados who watch Eleanor Powell movies want to see great dancing with the best legs God ever put on a lady dancer, good music,and at least a semi-credible plot. Ellie's Pin-ball dance is a classic, and the attending circus is eclecticly entertaining, and the finale sensational. (Ouch! with all those splits!) Alas, all the VHS tapes being sold as new are really 3rd or 4th generation copies that look to be seriously out-of-focus. All vendors get their copies from a single source. I bought two copies at different times and the quality is uniformly poor. The delicious Ellie Powell does more yakkin' than hoofin'and in group shots, one cannot discern facial features. Good, clear VHS copies of this movie are proably nowhere available. This would be four stars is if the video was clear. Those great legs deserve better.
