Movie Reviews of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Movie Review: Classic Keeper
Summary: 5 Stars
This musical is older than I am. I have had in my collection twice. This time it stays.
The story line holds up. The dance numbers are still being taught. The barn raising dance belongs in the history book. You'll find may gems in this one. After you see it once you'll hum "Bless You're Beautiful Hide."
Look hard and you'll recognize a featured player from "West Side Story."
Enjoy.
Summary of Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Well, bless my beautiful hide! Director Stanley Donen invests this rollicking musical with a hearty exuberance. Howard Keel, with his big-as-all-outdoors baritone, stars as a bold "mountain man" living in the Oregon woods who brings home a bride (plucky songbird soprano Jane Powell) to his six slovenly brothers. Taming the rambunctious brood, Jane proceeds to make gentlemen of them so they can woo sweethearts of their own. But old habits die hard: their flirting gives way to fighting in the film's celebrated barn-raising scene, a lively acrobatic dance number exuberantly choreographed by Michael Kidd. Big brother chimes in with his own brand of advice--an old-fashioned kidnapping! Donen manages to get away with such a politically incorrect plot by investing the boys with a innocent sweetness, most notably the youngest brother played with genial earnestness by Rusty (Russ) Tamblyn (pre-West Side Story). This modest production became a huge hit and remains one of MGM's best-loved musical comedies, an energetic, high-kicking classic. --Sean AxmakerMusicals & Performing Arts DVD Video
