Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great variety
Great in the sense of being very good, that is, but it also has a wide variety of items. Sad (Penny Candy, Guess who I saw Today), funny (no synonym starting with s), satirical (Boston Beguine), sensuous (Eartha Kitt at the start of her career, with the memorable "Monotonous"). Foot-tapping melodies like "Lizzie Borden". Enjoyable singing and dancing. All set within a minor but very funny skit. I repeat, great variety.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - New faces of 1952

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Bad reproduction of a great movie!
the imaging is very blurry. Too bad. The CD is great!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - ENTERTAINMENT HISTORY!
BOUGHT THIS DVD TO GET EARTHA KITT'S PERFORMANCES AND OF COURSE SHE
WAS GREAT! THE FILMING AND EDITING ARE A LITTLE DATED, BUT AS PART OF
ENTERTAINMENT HISTORY IT IS ABSOLUTELY VIEWABLE.
