Flower Drum Song DVD

 An Asian-American Extravaganza.....!!
Typical Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical, but with an all Asian cast. Very impressing for bringing the generation gap and conflict between tradition and new, modern concepts. All the characters give memorable performances, I liked especially the actor who played the father of the hero "Ta",(Benson Fong, I believe) he was simply splendid. All in all maybe it is not in the usual standard of its creators, yet the lyrics and music are still enjoyable, more understandable if you keep in mind the "Chinatown" of the late 50's and early 60's!!

 One of My Favorites
Maybe as an adult I may not rate this movie 5 stars, but as a kid this was one of my very favorite films! The music and dance routines are colorful and fun! I still remember all the songs and can't wait to show it to my children!

 Great Movie!
Very entertaining with wonderful songs and dance numbers, good characters and colorful settings. The interviews that are included on this disc (featuring Nancy Kwan and other stars of the movie) was quite interesting. The quality of the picture and sound reproductions were excellent. I highly recommend this DVD to anyone who loves musicals, especially Rodgers and Hammerstein productions, as well those who enjoy San Francisco's Chinatown district and people who simply like to be entertained.
