劉別謙初嚐好下梅除夜除夜製做的派頭，一切筆法更神情飛揚。開敞的場景、绝后的排場讓人物裏裏中中尽兴張開：众婦的心更顯孤獨，男女的愛愈减沒處安放。坐擁小國除夜除夜部门財富的众婦倏忽要搬到巴黎重新尋找糊心颜色，國王唯恐國祚没有保來一招好男計，派出風流種子色誘众婦。本來一個用情一個供性，幾番重遇與开騰，改寫了男男女女的根柢需供。歌與舞沒有賣弄苦膩，反而放正在愛情的繁重中換來了歌頌。歌與影無間交流，劉別謙輕歌劇巔峰之做，亦成了荷里活極有代表性的一章。司花利亞與珍娜．麥當仆最後一次开做，後者散發從已有過的成弃世韻味。堪稱最性感的音樂劇热面片子 Rated "the sexiest musical in the thirties", The Merry Widow could well be the sexiest musical ever. Jeannette MacDonald, sensual and majestic as a Persian cat, is the wealthiest widow in the kingdom of Marschovia. On a visit to Paris, she attracts a flurry of gold-diggers. To prevent her fortune from passing to foreign hands, the king sends a romantic envoy to court her. He chooses Captain Donilo, whose cavalier attitude to women is not limited to his rapport with Maxim's "girls, girls, girls". Osé but not blasé, this elegant adaptation of Franz Lehar's operetta out-classed von Stroheim's silent in opulence, culminating in the grandest of grand balls. Source: 28th HKIFF
