Movie Reviews

Synopsis:
This is one the most delightful musical comedies ever made for the screen, directed with an effervescent flair by the incomparable Vincente Minnelli. Ella Peterson is a switchboard operator at a Manhattan telephone answering service, Susanswerphone, who gets mixed up in her kooky clients' lives, acting as both muse and therapist. Her main predicament though, is that she's fallen in love with a client's voice...

Notes:
Adaptation of the hit Broadway musical by Betty Comden, Adolph Green, and Jule Styne. Filmed in CinemaScope, Metrocolor, and Panavision. Songs include "Just in Time," "The Party's Over," "Hello," "It's a Perfect Relationship," "Drop that Name," and "I'm Going Back (Where I Can Be Me, at the Bonjour Tristesse Brassiere Company)."

Reviews:
"Holliday's screen swan song, it also was the last MGM musical from two kings of the form: producer Arthur Freed and director Vincente Minnelli." - 04/01/2005 USA Today, p.3E
