This charming musical not only took home an Oscar for Best Music, but gathered up a bushel basket full of nominations: Best Cinematography, Best Film Editing, Best Screenplay, and lost Best Picture to On the Waterfront - No shame in that loss!
There wasn't a whole lot of story here, not surprising as it was based upon a short story by Stephen Vincent Benet; but there sure was some excellent musical numbers, and amazing dance routines.
It is a funny story and good enough that they actually made a Broadway musical out of a movie. This is definitely an ensemble performance, and the story is good even 50 years later.
