DVD Reviews of The Rodgers & Hammerstein Collection (The Sound of Music / The King and I / Oklahoma! / South Pacific / State Fair / Carousel)

DVD Review: Great collection
Summary: 5 Stars

It was a cold and rainy night Brad and Janet, had a flat and needed to find shelter and a phone. There was a light. Unknown to them was the particular caste was a meeting place of a unique other worldly crowd. Soon they will have realized their mistake; but will it be too late?

Wither it is the story or the characters or the absurd enlivenment with so many unforgettable songs, this film was for years only available as a mid-night movie.
Generations grew up on this film and it may still have a future with generations to come.

And where have all the actors gone?

Susan Sarandon from Janet Weiss to Jackie Harrison in "Stepmom" (1998).
She took her screen daughter to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Tim Curry (who likes to play doctor) from Doctor Frank-N-Furter to Dr. Thornton Poole in "Oscar" (1991).

Oscar is still available from amazon.co.uk

Barry Bostwick from Brad Majors to Det. Tucker Pendleton to himself in "Hollywood Squares" (1998) [TV-Series]

Meatloaf from Eddie to himself in "Meat Loaf - Bat Out of Hell" (1999)

Richard Milhouse Nixon from Himself (archive audio: resignation speech) to "Speeches of Richard Nixon, The (1995) (V)" (archive footage) he will always be with us.

And where is Denton now?
Do your homework and be sure to get these movies first:

Day the Earth Stood Still, The (1951)
Flash Gordon (1936)
Invisible Man, The (1933)
King Kong (1933)
It Came From Outer Space (1953)
Doctor X (1932)
Forbidden Planet (1956)
Tarantula (1955)
Day of the Triffids, The (1962)
Night of the Demon (1957)
When Worlds Collide (1951)
House in Nightmare Park, The (1973)
Reptile, The (1966)
Brides of Dracula, The (1960)
Man in Black, The (1949)
Night of the Demon (1957)
Forbidden Planet (1956)

First time or 100th time, have fun.

As with any collection, everyone has a different favorite. The nice thing about this collection is some of the movies may not be everyone's cup of tea, but there are no duds snuck in the pack.
It consists of:

"Oklahoma!" (1955) Gordon MacRay and Gloria Grahame
"Carousel" (1956) Gordon MacRay and Shirley Jones
"The King and I" (1956) Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner
"South Pacific" (1958) Rossano Brazzi and Mitzi Gaynor
"The Sound of Music" (1965) Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer

I do not want to get involved in screen format wars but the films them selves will take you to far off lands and far off times. For a better feel, you may want to look at the individual reviews.
You will find yourself singing all the songs through the day.
By the way if you already one or two of these already it is still worth buying as a set.
