One of my neighbors has established a "cinema club" to give us "retirees" something fun to do. He's one of us and has a very impressive movie collection. Today we saw "Annie Get Your Gun."
It was great fun. Some of the lyrics are hysterical. The whole thing is one glorious parody. The set looks like an old stage, OK, considering the massive numbers of horses dancing around, literally, it's enormous. But there's no real attempt to make it look natural. The stage could be in the center of the earth.
I was sure the actor playing the Indian chief was a Yiddish actor from how he looked and spoke, but apparently J. Carrol Naish was Irish. Could have fooled me.
