Review of My Sister Eileen (1942) by Darryl C — 28 Mar 2008
This is underrated fosse--just as strong as his more famous films like cabaret and sweet charity. because of the overexposure of such pieces, we need to look at eileen a lot. we also need to look at it for one of many examples of hollywood rewriting a decent musical.
in this case, bernstein's bombastic score for wonderful town was left behind for jule styne's more affable score.
