Bad copy - but sounds good
I got a bad copy of this from [email protected] for something like $15.00.
Run off in black and white.
The visual is indescribably bad; you can scarcely tell one character from another; hence the exquisite vision of Irene Manning and the transcendently mick Irish visage of Dennis Morgan are severely reduced in their intensity.
Happily, the sound quality is largely intact; thus one can still relish the exquisitely rendered delivery of this, the most lyrical and lovingly executed of the three versions.
(Okay, God knows Kathryn Grayson of the fifties version is the most superb creature to ever fall upon eye and ear that God ever created, but paired opposite Gordon MacRae with his head wrapped up in that … burkah? … and contrasted against no less than Steve Cochran as the loser heavy … ? All pretty strange. )
