USA
Director: Charles Walters
Casts: Judy Garland (Hannah Brown), Fred Astaire (Don Hewes),
Peter Lawford (Jonathan Harrow), Ann Miller (Nadine Hale)
I got to say right now I don't know how to look at the musicals. But as far as the narrative is concerned, Easter Paradejust don't have the sparks between the leading roles. It starts with several love-chasing between four charaters, but only ends up hastely binding Garland and Astaire together, maybe as any two leading roles "supposed" to be in any musicals, and leave much untold and unexplained.
But hey, it's a musical, and we got Garland and Astaire, in certain level it can't be that wrong. I think Garland was most splandid when she sang alone with a little bit naughty expression in her face. And Ann Miller did look gorgeous in her numbers. I am glad to see Nadine doesn't been punished to fail or anything just because she chooses her career over man.
