the movie be a fantasy . the story line be thin but serve a the structure upon which some wonderful song be sung and sung beautifully . ( i still can not believe that such handsome and attractive people could sing this well . ) some of the dialog be wonderfully clever . the costume make me feel a though i be watch a haute couture fashion show from 1942. movie be design to serve various purpose . this one be design to entertain and it certainly do . if i have one negative comment it would be that nelson eddy be a little too old to be the handsome dashing count . some of the closeup make me uncomfortable . but he could still sing and sing magnificently . however and jeanette macdonald be just as dazzling a ever . she make a spectacular angel . this genre be well before my time and and i an new to the jeanette macdonald or nelson eddy film and related conversation . the music in this movie be beautiful . as much a i love the classic rock music which fill most modern movie and there be no question in my mind that this music be simply and clearly more memorable and more delightful and well construct . the star in this movie be more talented than the star i see in the movie theater today . and jeanette macdonald and without the benefit of beverly hill plastic surgeon and be more beautiful than the star i see today . i be unclear a to why so many other poster be apologetic about like this movie and more generally this group of movie . they say it be date and try to explain why it be the way it be . and those that do not like it say that it be not very good but compare to what . i think this movie will doubtless still be entertain people when so many other movie be long forgotten . there be just too much quality in every way in this movie for it not to be remember and enjoy . i recommend this movie without reservation to anyone who appreciate great talent and great beauty and great music .
