THE GREAT ZIEGFELD [IMPORT]

Details

• Release Year: 1936
• Genre: Comedy, Musical, Romance
• Plot: Flo Ziegfeld's midway attraction isn't drawing flies. 'How's business, Ziggy?' a rival taunts. This winner of 3 Academy Awards® including Best Picture provides the career-chronicling answer.Florenz Ziegfeld Jr.'s business was good (with Broadway's legendary Follies and more), bad (including times the showman could scarcely rub two nickels together) and rarely lacking optimistic excess.; ; 'The Great Ziegfeld' casts William Powell at the head of a lustrous cast including real-life Ziegfeldians and Hollywood favorites (particularly Best Actress Oscar® winner Luise Rainer). Key creative personnel from Ziegfeld shows are on board. And musical numbers (like 'A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody', which earned Seymour Felix the Best Dance Direction Oscar®) meld Ziegfeld lavishness with cinematic pizazz. Great? You bet!
