at beginning I was always thinking why would they match Blake rather an older and less charming husband in the film... Ending was bit out of nowhere and didn't tell the story in a completed way. Plain film, and acting.
One of best-loved musicals. The film centers on a family and follows their lives over four seasons of a year. The themes embrace home, family and young love. There is a darker motif that runs through film represented by the mise-en-scène with shadowy lighting, gesture. Notice Technicolor production design, music, alternative subtexts.
