Not Worth the Price.......2003-12-20

Be wary of this release! Ostensibly a special, it is a poorly strung together compendium of movie trailers! Additionally, the special Featurette section stops each video mid sentence at the 4 minute mark (on 10 minute shorts!). Definitely a slapped together, low budget DVD meant to trick buyers.

quality musicals, lack luster DVD.......2003-11-12

This DVD lets you in on lots of behind-the-scenes info about our favorite musicals from the 60s, but the quality of the DVD leaves something to be desired. I bought this elsewhere online, new, and some of the segments were suddenly cut short (in mid-sentence, even). So buyer beware.

There is a reason why it's on SALE........2002-02-13

To the point:
If you are a musical fan there is not much that this DVD will inform you that you don't already know.The thing that really bothers me is the bad quality in most of the clips. But if you are doing a research than you might find it's quite helpful. To conclude they should just sell it as a VHS format.
