Customer Reviews of Hollywood Musicals of the 40s
Only for the Movie Maven If you are looking for an hour or so of entertainment (like the video series That's Entertainment) don't buy this DVD. I agree with the other reviewer. It looked like a High School project that made it to some publisher.
Because I am really into exploring all of the goldie oldie movies the DVD presented some previews unseen in my movie quest. A rather tedious DVD to watch for those few goodies.
I don't understand why there was such terrible fidelity in the film shorts. They were recorded in really bad EP mode when I know many are available in better quality film mode. Like this was made with someone with very limited equipment.
Anyway, worth a few (very few) $$$ to the student of movies. For the casual viewer....don't.
Great idea...the execution is not good though
This DVD looks back at the musicals of the 1940s, through movie clips and trailers and while it is a wonderful way to retrospect on the time period, it is nearly unwatchable. The clips shown are faded, washed out or really dark. It is very distracting and the narration is not very good either. If I dare say it, it seems this DVD was compiled as some art school project that managed to find a distributor. There are three of these DVDs in a series: Musicals from the 40s, 50s and 60s. None of them is really any better than the other is. On a positive note, I saw trailers that I never thought I would see, and for that reason I rated this title higher, however, if you are hoping for a really great retrospective on musicals, this falls short simply because the execution seem so after-thought.
