the choreography is beautiful but to me it makes the film disjointed and now seems very dated...take it out and it is very modern...Fred Zinnemann was an artist and a gifted director. I love so many of his films...
Follow Ups:
There is a DVD of a late 1990's British revival where the dream sequence is handled brilliantly and the dancers are the actual performers in the play.
THAT.... would make more sense
If you can find it it is truly amazing. Every player is a triple threat singer/actor/dancer. The story is "darker" than the film (not to denegrate the film, which I love) and all in all it's the best production of this classic I have seen.
