WORTH CONSUMING!
With “America” and the amazing layering of “Tonight” that builds to the film’s ominous climax, not to mention the Mambo dance scene, this has to be one of the greatest musicals ever made.

You won me over with this entry! :)
WSS was one of my father’s favorite Broadway shows. I still remember him putting the 33 RPM cast album on the record player and belting out some of the show’s hits.
I remember it as being the first movie I saw that prompted a member of the audience to cry. Until then, I didn’t know film had that power.
I still wince listening to “Tonight” and “Somewhere”.
