$22.49 - Oklahoma! (50th Anniversary Edition)
Product DescriptionSet in the Oklahoma Territory in the early 1900's, this joyous celebration of frontier life is a story of tender romance and dangerous passion. Gordon MacRae is Curly, a sunny, good-natured ranch hand, and Shirley Jones is Laurey Williams, the farmer's daughter he loves. Rod Steiger is he menacing Jud, who tries to comes between them. The first Rodgers and Hammerstein collaboration, this Academy Award winner for Best Score features the classic songs "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'," "The Surrey With The Fringe On Top" and "People Will Say We're In Love."
The hit Broadway musical from the 1940s gets a lavish if not always exciting workout in this 1955 film version directed by old lion Fred Zinnemann (High Noon). Gordon MacRae brings his sterling voice to the role of cowboy Curly, and Shirley Jones plays Laurie, the object of his affection. The Rodgers and Hammerstein score includes "The Surrey with the Fringe on Top," "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'," and "People Will Say We're in Love," and Agnes DeMille provides the buoyant choreography. Among the supporting cast, Gloria Grahame is memorable as Ado Annie, the "girl who cain't say no," and Rod Steiger overdoes it as the villainous Jud. --Tom Keogh

Summary : Bad Seller
I recieved a video from this seller. The video did not work. When I asked for a refund they told me they would only refund me if I removed my review, which wasn't bad but it did say the video did not work. I would rather that other buyers know that the movie didn't work than to recieve my refund. I think it is shady how I could only recieve my refund if I deleted my review. I would not do business with this seller again. I have copies of all email conversations with this seller if any one would like to see. Thank you!

Summary : Good Movie, Bad DVD layout: Blasts you with bad music, Don't steal
What would you call it when a great movie is overshadowed by loud and bad music that broadcasts the message: Don't steal dvd content. I'd call it stupid. Not only that, but on my DVD player, I can't get past that message and get to the main movie, it keeps repeating this over and over. In my opinion this is a bad DVD layout. The first thing we ought to see on a DVD I've purchased myself is the menu. I can't stand the theft warning, and I loathe the previews. Please, movie industry, shape up!
