ROSALIE - DVD-1937-NELSON EDDY-WARNER ARCHIVE COLL

Details

• Release Year: 1937
• Genre: Drama, Musical
• Plot: Nelson Eddy woos Romanzan princess Eleanor Powell in a big, big musical extravaganza.; ; Nelson Eddy's rich baritone, Eleanor Powell's astonishing footwork and songs by Cole Porter – what more could a musical fan wish for? Wrapped in a deliciously preposterous story concerning a Balkan princess, a West Point football hero, a daring solo flight across the Atlantic, court intrigue and star-crossed romance, Rosalie lured huge film audiences with its knockout blend of top cast (including future The Wizard of Oz co-stars Ray Bolger and Frank Morgan) and magnificent music. Eddy sings two evergreen Porter songs: the haunting In the Still of the Night and the title tune, reprised to feature Powell at her most dazzling in a number that defines spectacle: a 60-acre, 27-camera, 2000-people paragon of screen-filling wow.
