ALL HITS NO ERRORS
Today's film was the film version of the long ago stage hit
with Tab Hunter, Gwen Verdon and Ray Walston.
I watched it because I like it and also it was the first significant role for Jean Stapleton who just died.
We were friends for a period of time.
This is one of the most "genuine" transfers from stage to screen with the full Broadway cast except for Tab Hunter who, actually, does a great job as Joe Hardy, the guy who sells his soul to the devil for a bit of fame and a win over the Yankees.
Lots of songs and dances.
It has aged well.
It is an obvious 5 out of Netflix5 because I have seen it all so many times.
