Product Description:
ROYAL WEDDING: Dancing and romance collide in ROYAL WEDDING as a brother-sister dance team (Fred Astaire and Jane Powell) open their musical show in London shortly before the English royal wedding and find love of their own. Showcasing some of Astaire's most memorable dance scenes in film history--Astaire's hat-rack partner and his dancing on the ceiling (impressive even to those jaded by special effects)--this tale of finding true love when it's least expected and least wanted has delighted audiences since the movie's release in 1951.Flirty Ellen and dance-focused Tom have escaped the clutches of many marriage-minded partners keeping their joint entertainment careers their first priority. When they leave New York to sail for London to open a new musical show Ellen leaves behind many besotted men but no regrets. But when a ladies' man (and lord) falls hard for Ellen and a British girl in the dance chorus needs Tom's help to locate her fianc both brother and sister realize that this time love must come first.THE BELLE OF NEW YORK: Turn-of-the-century New York City. Astaire is Charlie Hill a playboy who falls head-over-heels in love with Angela Bonfils (Vera-Ellen) a mission worker and attempts to woo her with his charm dancing ability and singing voice. Songs include: "I Wanna Be a Dancin' Man" "Let a Little Love Come In" "Baby Doll" "Oops" "Seeing's Believing" "Naughty but Nice" and "Bachelor's Dinner Song."Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MUSICALS/MUSICALS Rating: NR UPC: 012569795297 Manufacturer No: 79529

This version of "Royal Wedding" and "The Belle of New York" has a good quality of picture and sound and is worth buying. Both movies are enjoyable, but "Royal Wedding" is by far a better made film. You will watch "Royal Wedding" more than the other one. I would recommend this version.

"Royal Wedding" is among the top five or so of the great Technicolor musicals of the late 1940s and 1950s. For fans of the genre, it is not to be missed, and finally a decent-looking studio release is available. "The Belle of New York", on the other hand, is a different story.
How do these misfires happen? You have the number-one musical-producing studio and number-one musical star of all time, a worthy partner, a supporting cast of terrific character actors, a pair of great songwriters, ... Read More

This disc is welcome news for Astaire fans. It resurrects two films which which have many pleasant moments and contain three outstanding musical numbers. Belle of New York, the movie which spends more time with Astaire dancing than any of his other movies, has been long unavailable except for an out-of-print VHS tape. Royal Wedding has been all too available in uniformly execrable public domain releases.
BELLE OF NEW YORK:
This was one of Astaire's few critical and box office losers. ... Read More

Leonard Maltin gives three stars to Royal Wedding, but only two and one half to The Belle of New York, which he calls "uninspired". Royal Wedding exists in more than forty versions on DVD, including budget versions and in sets. My reason for choosing this new edition is that first, it's in print, while many of the other aren't, and second this is a film that deserves to be seen in a quality version without the skips, stops, color bleeds and edits on some of the budget releases.
