DVD Review: Too many holes, too much rock n roll.
Summary: 3 Stars
The 1960s were a fascinating time of change for the movie musical, yet this episode of this series doesn't explore them in any depth and proves to be the most disappointing so far, mainly because of what it omits. The 50s and 70s in this series pretty much covers in one way or another (albeit often briefly)every movie musical made in that decade. This version spends so much time on the rock n roll movies that it fails to examine the effect "the Sound of Music" had on movie musicals, when a multitude of huge copy cart musicals came out and flopped, even though some were good and in some cases very good. Some of the musicals this doco fails to examine or even mention include "Star", "Darling Lili", "Song of Norway", "Goodbye Mr Chips"to name a few, some of which have had a new appreciation built for them since their original release, but this doco spends so much time on bad Elvis Presley movies and Beatles movies, it has no time to examine enough the real movie musicals especially of the latter part of the 60s, of course much time is spent on "West Side Story" etc,but there is so much more of the story to tell and they just dont do it. I see they are releasing a whole set on the rock n roll movie musicals, if they had left all the Beatles and Presley stuff to that doco we might have had a more balanced look at true movie musicals of this era.

Description of Hollywood Singing and Dancing: A Musical History - The 1960s
The demise of the once powerful Hollywood studio system and the rise of independent filmmakers brought a different kind of realism to the movies of the 1960s. Although lavish productions such as ?West Side Story? and ?My Fair Lady? were triumphant at the box office, as the 1960s progressed Hollywood musicals reflected the changing tide and embraced rock and roll music. These two episodes explore the movie musical during this turbulent decade.Bestsellers in DVD
