Very slight emotions, facial & body expressions as Liberace says his lines; too bad... Sincerely Yours has a great supporting cast too... William Demarest (Uncle Charlie from My Three Sons, appeared in just about every movie ever made), Edward Platt (The Chief on Get Smart), two lovely lady co-stars (Dorothy Malone and Joanne Dru) who each made a million other movies. This is an OK story about a musician who tries to work around physical challenges; it seems to really be a vehicle for Liberace to play his pi-anny. Interesting tidbit.. the back of the VHS cover from 1987 says "Starring Alex Nicol" but in the cast list on IMDb, he is waaaaaay down on the list, far after the first six stars, and doesn't have a large part in the story. Nicol (from Tarzan, various films and TV work) plays Ferguson, a composer. He also makes another interesting comment about how Liberace "respects the classics from a sitting position, not from his knees." Richard Eyer (Alvie) was one of the kids on Ma & Pa Kettle, and did a lot of TV work. Melvin the elevator operator certainly steals his scene, but I don't see him listed in the cast on IMDb. Knowing what we know about Liberace, I had to crack up when Dru, his secretary, says "You're very popular in San Francisco!" Others have pointed out that this is a remake of "The Man Who Played God" (1932) but I also see shades of "Magnificent Obsession" from 1954.
