Outstanding. My kid did a pretty good rendition of that on trombone when he was fifteen or so, before he ... got sidetracked and passed on. Not as good as that but pretty good

I actually got angry about this the other day, raised my voice so-to-speak (tough to actually raise your voice with a talk-to-text translator): same as that Adams character elected mayor as a dem. He's a cop, are not dems. I've looked, somewhat humorously, askance at Fetterman from the start: firemen are not dems. I fear yaw'l've had the wool pulled, sold a bag full of magic corn

And that's more than I've had to say in a long time but it pretty much covers everything in between ...

Sun Valley Serenade is a terrific film ! The band segments are tight and imaginative. Sonya Henie and John Payne have great chemistry. Kind of hot, actually! I usually have no use for Milton Berle. This film didn't change that.

The cinematography, by Edward Cronjager is great. Nominated for an Academy Award. Cronjager is the guy who filmed the Oklahoma Land Rush scened in the film "Cimarron" . Used 27 cameraman in shot like a quarter of a million feet of film for that scene.

The snow scenes in Sun Valley Serenade, especially the skiing, are awesome.

I love this film, everyone should see it! Free on YouTube
