One of the most popular musicals of the decade, despite artistic problems

4 stars out of 5 -- [I]t's the delicious, good-hearted exuberance of this WWII romantic musical, as well as the Rodgers & Hammerstein score, that grab you.

Joshua Logan's stiff screen version leaves much to be desired, and Mitzi Gaynor is miscast and charmless, but the score is undenibaly glorious

Despite the reddish hues, one great Rodgers and Hammerstein musical.

Rating: 77/100 --
Might not be musical enough for some, and it's certainly not going to be substantial enough for some. But it's entertaining and more emotionally true than you might expect.
