No, your sources are wrong.  It's from a 1940s revue THE SEVEN LIVELY ARTS.  He still had THE PIRATE, KISS ME KATE, OUT OF THIS WORLD, CAN-CAN, HIGH SOCIETY, LES GIRLS, and SILK STOCKINGS to write.

And ALADDIN on TV, too.

DR Matt, if you're going to follow along on the forums, why not just watch?  

Becuase I get WAY too emotionally involved. Enough so that I lose sleep and take things personally. You remember how I get with AMERICAN IDOL (and how I got with GREASE). This is why I choose reality shows very, very carefully.

IDOL and PROJECT RUNWAY are the only ones I will actually watch now. That's all my emotions can stand.

I watched the last of the three episodes on disc one of DANTE'S COVE. More than this other two episodes, this really was soft-core porn with several scenes of simulated sexual activity. The men are very pretty indeed.

Then I watched THE PRODIGAL. It isn't the most scintillating Biblical-based epic I've ever seen, but it had its moments, and I rather enjoyed it. Still didn't find it any campier than any of DeMille's Bible-based pictures. The dialog just isn't purple enough for camp. Anne Baxter's lines in THE TEN COMMANDMENTS are true camp classics. Nothing here even approaches that level of purple prose..

The film did look very good (nice surround sound, too) with only a place or two where there was some kind of film artifact.

Since I had less than an hour left for afternoon viewing, I started THE PRODIGAL over again with Dr. Drew Casper's commentary track engaged. It was very funny, funnier than the film, I thought.

He goes into paroxysms of delight when Lana takes her long, strident walks across the frame, but he does offer some good information about the principals before and behind the camera.

I was afraid he was going to omit James Mitchell, my favorite performer in the film, from any discussion, but he did eventually get around to him.

Tonight I'll watch A PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION as planned, and then I'll have to decide what else I'll watch. I have THE HILL ready to go if I'm in the mood for it. Otherwise, I might put in some mystery that I've already watched.

No, not quite!  It just wouldn't hold a charge.  I don't think they checked, though, to see if it worked.

Guess I'll head back down now and read a bit before starting on this evening's viewing. I did get the bedroom areas cleaned before I fixed lunch, so I won't have that chore to do.

I remember my first summer in New York, our electric bills were right around $300/mo. I had never used a window unit air conditioner, so I had no idea how much power they used. Now I know, and knowing is half the battle.

I love "Blow, Gabriel, Blow." It's a great song, and it makes the sick side of me giggle because my mind goes to the double entendre of the title. I know...I'm a sicko.

A. Replacing incandescent light bulbs with energy-saving fluorescents also does wonders in cutting electric bills.

B. Sicko is charming ;)

Actually, "Well Did You Evah" is from DUBARRY WAS A LADY, and the lyrics were revised and cleaned up for HIGH SOCIETY.

No fair teasing! What are the original lyrics?

I thought the vulture sequence was quite purple. . . .and camp. . .and momentous.  I thoroughly enjoyed it.

We have a three-bedroom house in Phoenix, Arizona, and I don't think we've ever had a $315 electric bill, even in the summer.

I'll bet you don't use a 115VAC A/C.
