Such a great film!

The sun is swimmin' on the rim of a hill;
The moon is takin' a header,
And jist as I'm thinkin' all the earth is still,
A lark'll wake up in the medder.
Hush, you bird, my baby's a-sleepin'!
Maybe got a dream worth a-keepin'
Whoa! you team, and jist keep a-creepin' at a slow clip clop.
Don't you hurry with the surrey with the fringe on the top!

For starters, the Alex and their volunteers are great. Oklahoma is a wonderful film. That said, at Saturday's matinee, there was a problem with the film's projection. The film did not fully fit on the screen, with a sliver of the right side projected on the curtains. The problem seemed to go away after the first reel. Other than that, had a great time.

Excellent way to view such a film - the dance scene (dream turn nightmare) was remarkable. Now that I am older, I had forgotten all of the great dancing that this film had. Always good to see it again & again. Worth every penny to enjoy such a treasure.

The Alex is a wonderful theater in which to see one of Hollywood's classic films. The Chuck Jones cartoon was a real treat, too. Kudos to everyone!

Description

Filled with timeless, showstopping songs, this Oscar-winning Rodgers and Hammerstein landmark musical takes you back to Oklahoma at the turn of the last century.  It's the story of a couple of young cowboys trying to win the hearts of their sweethearts, despite the interference of an evil ranch hand.

When first released, it was described as "A motion picture as big as all outdoors!" And it still is.

The film stars Gordon MacRae, Shirley Jones, Rod Steiger, Gloria Graham and Eddie Albert and contains unforgettable ballet sequence and choreography by Agnes de Mille and direction by Fred Zinnemann.

Also on the program will be the delightful Warner Bros. Merrie Melody: Drip-Along Daffy from 1951 featuring Daffy Duck, Porky Pig and Nasty Canasta.
