Star! (1968)
Directed by Robert Wise
Starring Julie Andrews
Musical biography of actress Gertrude Lawrence tries to be entertaining but it's sometimes unnecessary lenght makes it sometimes yawning, but the main problem is the lost focus of the plot. The movie have it's songs for sure, and Andrews is terrific, but the movie passed in front your eyes. The team who brought you "The Sound of Music" surely want this to be a big hit ... but this never happen. In spite of that, is worth seeing for that last big musical number - Choreographed by Michel Kidd-.
