I got tired of seeing this movie as a high school musical presentation.


I got tired of seeing this play as a local high school musical presentation. The teenage casted lead, for Harold Hill, usually can't blurt out all the lines as clear and as quickly as Robert Preston could.

Our whole family watched this movie for the first time and this movie is a triumph, a pure delight.

A very young Surely Jones, in 1962, is more charming than a young Olivia Newton John in the late 1970s. This theatrical film version of the successful Broadway musical is a treasure.
