Well, after looking at the other comments, I am beginning to wonder did we all see the same film?? I thoroughly enjoyed it, I thought it was better than the original, mind you, I am a fan of Glenn Close (so I could be biased there) and Robert Pastorelli (who sadly passed away earlier in March, this year). He died far too young, I was looking to seeing him in future films. I also thought Ilene Graff and Harry Connick played good supportive roles. I bought this film on DVD and am always cheered by it. So what, if people think that Glenn Close was a little older to play this film, Mary Martin was in her late 40's when she did this musical on the stage. What I see is a film, which I think was a happy experience for all those who appeared in it. I was glad to see the home movie of the film being made too, which was greatly enjoyed. We all have different tastes and talents, so I accept all people have different views, but I thought some of the views were a little harsh. I would like to see some of these people have the courage to appear in this type of film, knowing they could be savaged by reviews. It takes a lot of courage to remake a film like this. I know I could not have done it, so I appreciate those who can.
