1962 - THE MUSIC MAN, a tune filled slice of Americana

The best thing  that has happened to the musical comedy since sliced bread and the invention of peanut butter.

Robert Preston is simply superb recreating his role as the rascally con man with a heart of gold Professor Henry Hill.

Shirley Jones again is as pretty as a picture.

The songs are a tuneful delight, a toe tapping extravaganza of melodic merriment.

 151 minutes of sheer joy. Directed by Morton DaCosta,
