Movies That Fell Through the Cracks # 31
BOOKSTEVE'S LIBRARY (Free subscription) | 11/05/2007
1972’s THE RED, RED DRAGON was Australia’s first feature-length animated cartoon and by all accounts was an enjoyable, energetic musical fantasy.

Here are a few more musicals that I've always enjoyed. Bye Bye Birdie with Ann-Margaret. She was cute, but she sure didn't look like an average teenager. But I loved Bobby Rydell as Hugo - of course, I've always liked Bobby and still do. The Producers with Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick. I didn't realize Matthew Broderick was so talented. And I just absolutely ADORE Nathan Lane! King Creole, Elvis's...
