Classic Film Club: Seven Brides For Seven Brothers Film Screening

Things are different for the Pontipee men now that big brother Adam’s fetched a bride and brought her to their cabin. Indeed, the unwed brothers are so inspired they raid the town and carry off brides of their own! Like a favourite flannel shirt, everything fits right in this rugged whoop-for-joy directed by Stanley Donen, choreographed by Michael Kidd and featuring an exhilarating Gene dePaul/Johnny Mercer score that won an Academy Award. Jane Powell and Howard Keel star, supported by a cast of buck skinned dancers and petticoated danseuses. And what steppin’! The barn-raising sequence alone- backflipping, plank-leaping athleticism-leaves a daylong smile. Bless Yore Beautiful Hide, all you brides and brothers!
