One of the best musicals I've seen!

Even though this is not the original musical movie, it's still a very good adaptation. (I hope that IMDb.com is talking about the original broadway cast). Anyway, the music is great, the set is pretty cool, the costumes are dapper and elegant ( especially Lise's shoes), but the story is where it's at. I love the story for this musical. How it shows us that out of the darkness of the world (in this case ww2),we'll find the light through laughter,music,companionship, and yes even love. I also like this one part in the play where milo Davenport ( the blonde American woman) and henri ( the dapper French man) are willing to let go of jerry and lise after finding out that they do not love them. In that moment milo and henri realize that when you truly,deeply, love someone, that you have to be willing to let go of them for good if you want them to be happy. I also love the parts where Lise and jerry talk and interact and get to know each other, and eventually fall in love. This isn't the Gene Kelly version But it's still a very good musical and I love how beautiful and true everything is. All I can say is who can ask for anything more?
