"They Say It's Wonderful" is a #popular #song written by #IrvingBerlin for the musical #AnnieGetYourGun (1946), where it was introduced by #EthelMerman and #RayMiddleton. A #filmVersion in 1950 again featured the song when it was performed by #HowardKeel and #BettyHutton.

I just watched Calamity Jane (David Butler, 1953) and rated it 8/10 ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calamity_Jane_(film) #films #cinema #cinemastodon #CalamityJane #DorisDay #HowardKeel #musical

Good evening from Thaxted. Clio and I have been watching another version of #DayOfTheTriffids - this time the film starring #HowardKeel. To my shame, I haven't read the book, so dont know how faithful this film is. It has a much more international feel, taking in many countries, while the resolution to the #Triffid problem was found here in England. I particularly liked that these two storylines ran in parallel, with the characters never meeting. You rarely have that in a film. Pax!

I just watched The Small Voice (Fergus McDonell, 1948) and rated it 7/10 ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Small_Voice?wprov=sfla1 #films #cinema #cinemastadon #TheSmallVoice #ValerieHobson #HowardKeel
