i have be lucky enough to have this fashion parade comedy musical film in my life since the mid 70 when new zealand tv station send all their old 16mm print to australia for junk . instead and most of these 500 print be find be in mint full length condition . a a result they be hire out and and i operate a cinema and ran dozen and dozen of them . among this incredible library be roberta which seem to always be program every other month or two . so my first viewing be in a lovely old cinema with a perfect print and a big audience . i have never recover and never want to . every time i see roberta i swoon from the sheer beauty of every part of this gorgeous film . 30 year later i can watch it on tape on tv and still get the same overwhelming emotional bliss know what it be do to me . i admire the fashionable production and the team so much because they know what they be do to the audience too represent present a sublime musical confection that be exquisite enough to make the viewer pas out from ache satisfaction . find it and see it and love it . have this film in your life and just absorb every second of it absolute perfection .
