Add this title to the growing list of "Why isn't this on DVD yet?" titles. This film also has the distinction of never being released on VHS either. When it's shown on AMC or TCM it seems to switch back and forth from the Widescreen to Standard formats. Perhaps a full Widescreen transfer print is not available? The plot basis is somewhat "one-joke" in that it is essentially this: Woman keeps marrying men (mostly poor) who eventually become fabulously wealthy, ultimately die, and leave her everything. In any case, this film is an absolute showcase for the work of 2 of Hollywood's greatest female legends: Shirley MacLaine and Edith Head. Shirley sings (though I'm not sure it's her voice in this one) dances (matching Gene Kelly step for step, backwards and in heels nonetheless!) and runs the acting gamut from drama to comedy and back again. She must have had a ball making this one as it's an actresses' dream. Playing opposite a list of Hollywood's top leading men in scenes that parody everything from silent films, to European new wave, to screwball comedies, to the lushest of Hollywood musicals; Shirley is resplendent in over 70 Edith Head originals. This movie should be prerequisite for students of Head's work. DVD gods of Hollywood, please give this one the full widescreen DVD release as it so ultimately deserves!
