    Blu-ray Review Flower Drum Song Blu-ray Review

    Because they didn't notice it when they shot it and there was no video assist. They "might" have noticed it in dailies the next day, but I can assure you no one gave a flying Wallenda about it.

    Blu-ray Review Flower Drum Song Blu-ray Review

    I watched it last night - wonderful to see and hear it - Universal should be lauded for doing a nice job with it. I especially enjoyed Russell Metty's photography and his use of lots of gels, creating all kinds of deep colors on walls, hair, and everywhere else. It's kind of a lost art now...

    Blu-ray Review Flower Drum Song Blu-ray Review

    Yes, his orchestrations are brilliant for Flower Drum Song and, I hate to say it, much preferable to Robert Russell Bennett's B'way orchestrations, which I just don't care for, especially Love, Look Away, my favorite Rodgers and Hammerstein song - Newman's arrangement is glorious.
