Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Vaudeville hodgepodge of variety numbers, based on Leonard Sillman's popular Broadway revue, which was a springboard for much new talent. One of the writers was Mel Brooks.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Valuable record of a bygone Broadway
OK, this "movie" isn't for everyone, but it's historical value can't be denied. It may be the first B'way show pretty much filmed in its entirety ... and the way it looked on stage. "New Faces of 1952" ran nearly a year and was the most successful of Leonard Sillman's many "New Faces" revues.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - enjoyable
enjoyable and nostalgic but i really need to buy the cd for a more intense enjoyment. i loved, loved, loved the original cd.

this is a great insight into the material on the cd, but different from that material



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - New Faces--Old Memories
I purchased this product for nostalgia--I saw the stage show in San Francisco in 1953. As nostalgia, it was most enjoyable; as theater in today's high tech expectations, it is underwhelming. If you would enjoy seeing these fledging stars in their professional infancy (Eartha Kitt, Paul Lynde, Robert Clary, Alice Ghostley9, I heartily recommend it. The technical quality is uneven; some scenes are, in a word, terrible. I also bought the separate music on a CD and the sound quality on it is much better. ... Read More
