On the Town (1949)

ON THE TOWN (DIDIER BECU)
6 March 2004
They surely don't make them like these any longer and it's a shame. In 2004 we bring our kids to The Matrix and they are involved in some SF-thing only the director understands but in 1949 (even if it was just 4 years after the war) you could find great musicals in where everything was fun, fun, fun. "On the town" is a delicious ride in where three mariniers are looking for a girl for 24 hours. The feminists will rise their hairs and saying they were just after sex or whatever but why should we think about that? It's great entertainment and the movie didn't annoy me one second, and that's a bit typical knowing that you're in the company of Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly. Outdated? Perhaps yeah but whatever...
