Why has there never been a CD of this great movie? Why?
I love the show, the movie, the score, and I crave the soundtrack to the movie. Hello? Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly (and Jules Munshen) doing "New York, New York" and Ann Miller singing "Modern Man" and Betty Garret as Hildy - COME ON!

It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story...

Posted: 2/18/08 at 4:00pmlove this show too, so sad that the Public and the West End revivals came and went without me getting a chance to see them. Never understood why WONDERFUL TOWN revival had a longer run when this Comden/Green was (for me) a far superior piece in terms of script, score, and dance-ability.
just keep swimming along, don't rise to the....
