Movie Reviews of Li'l Abner
Movie Review: Good Clean Fun....Dogpatch, style!
Summary: 5 Stars
Just like seeing the Broadway production (although I wish Edie Adams and Charlotte Rae had been cast in the big screen version!) in glorious technicolor!
Toe tapping tunes, brilliant visuals, spirited dancing and a comic-strip story that will be fun for audiences of all ages (the simple cartoon-y aspect appeals to kids, but plenty of double entendre for the grown-ups). Stella Stevens, Julie Newmar, TV's "Vera" from Alice and even Jerry Lewis pop up in minor roles.
A tuneful treat to see a stage show so faithfully and loving translated to the screen.
Movie Review: Lil Abner
Summary: 5 Stars
My sister and I saw Lil Abner (the musical) at the show when we were little girls. We always remembered the songs and the story line. I was very please to discover that a video of this old musical was available. Once ordered, the video arrived in a timely manner and was of excellent quality. The colors were wonderful, much better than I remember them in the movie. And the sound was superb! We enjoyed hearing the songs again and have shown the movie a couple of times to our grandchildren. We truly enjoyed Lil Abner.Movie Review: Li'l Abner review

MOISHE DAYAN & LIL ABNER
I was born 3 years after this movie was produced. I remember first seeing it in b&w, (not rich enough for a color tv) as a child and was enthralled.
Later (in my early twenties) I saw the last half of this movie (in color!) and was enthralled all over again.
The characterizations and musical numbers are spot on, and one can sense the eagerness of the actors to get it right. Try searching YouTube for Lil Abner and see if this movie's right for you too!
Movie Review: Love Musicals
Summary: 5 Stars
I love old musicals and I work with kids who have not been in musicals and don't know much about the past musicals. I love being able to purchase used musicals on DVDs and sharing with my students. It helps them see all the wonderal performing artist from the past. The DVD was in great shape and the kids love it and can't wait to sing, dance and act. Fun story line and cute dance numbers with fun and unique characters. I find my students are intrigue with this musical and can't wait to perform.Movie Review: Li'l Abner review
Summary: 5 Stars
The star Peter Palmer and I served in the army at Fort Sam Houston, Texas and I became his accompanist for two years. I was with him at the All Army Singing Contest at Ft. Hood when he won first place and went to New York to perform there. The producer of Li'l Abner saw him there and knew he was perfect for the part. The rest is history and I was glad to find that you still had a digital copy of Li'l Abner. We have since reconnected so this DVD is especially treasured. Thanks, Gordon de Leon
