I first seen this movie back in August. The summer of 1969. It was the first musical that i actually watched to the end. The story about the two sisters reminded me of my own two sisters. And the aunt from Paris wasn't too far off the mark of my own aunt (my fathers older sister). She was a hit where ever she went.
I told my daughter about the movie over the summer. She somehow found a DVD of it. As a family we watched it over the holidays. Every one enjoyed it as much as I did way back in 1969. It held up and I wasn't disappointed by it after all these years. You tend to feel foolish if you build up a movie or a favorite record to someone and then they see or hear it. They might wonder what all the fuss was about.
I don't know where she found the DVD. Possibly at a garage sale. The color went from good to black and white and then went to what looked like colorization. The sound cut out in a few spots too That didn't distract from our enjoyment of the movie.
