Summary: Carmen Miranda Collection
Comment: Dear Friends,
IT WAS WONDERFUL to watch Carmen Miranda in all her glory. BUT BUT BUT one of the discs was restored very poorly -- "Something for the Boys". The color was off, the quality was diluted and foggy....It should NOT have been included if it was NOT up to the others' standard. BUT, thanks for giving us the treat of re-living the good old days. Thanks. Ben and Gladys Caterinicchio

Summary: Saturday matinee movies, 1942 ?
Comment: It was with great fun that I was able to see the old Carmen Miranda movies. As a ten year old - and older, I really loved musicals. I went to see every musical movie that was showing at the cinema in a small country town in Queensland Australia. We were only allowed to go to the saturday matinees, and that was the event of my week then. I always remembered the Carmen Miranda movies as being funny - only in adult life did I see them as 'camp'. When I discovered that I was gay, the whole picture fell into place. Carmen was an extraordinary performer, quite zany but at the same time very entertaining. In retrospect I can see she was not a great actress, but personality and her mad sense of acting was very much of that period. Viewing them again now, I am enjoying them so much and am getting so many laughs. I have introduced them to younger friends, who are laughing along at the ridiculous situations, but enjoying the whole movie with me. Boom-chick-a-chick Carmen.

Summary: pretty entertaining stuff
Comment: I bought this set out of curiosity alone. I have enjoyed other bigger budget Fox musicals like those made by Alice Faye and Betty Grable, but didn't know much about any of these titles. (By the way, thanks for releasing a better print of "The Gang's All Here," which IS one of those big budget movies.) However, I was pleasantly surprised at the level of production and entertainment value in all the films, even in the black and white movies ("Doll Face" and "If I'm Lucky", which haven't received the best Amazon reviews. Carmen Miranda is a joy to watch, a fascinating talent that certainly evokes a by-gone era of movie-making. She's great in Technicolor or black and white! This set is well worth the money if you are a fan of musicals of the 40s. The documentary was top notch as well.
