i find this movie to be one of the best for this time and era . the cast be very exceptional and most entertaining to all that saw it . i would like for my young generation to have see this movie and but i haven not be able to find or see the movie in the past . my first viewing be back in the early sixty and i have be look for it every since . the movie show me potential of how far we come go to become a gifted at a craft where we could only have meaningless role to act a buffoon and servant . porky and bess show some of the urban life of my neighborhood a i saw it in the time where i need good solid male role model . the singing and acting have me skip for day and play the part of different character in this excellent movie .
