I love the songs too and the Room Above Her scene always makes me cry and as Janine says, don't miss her cute laughter at the end of the song =) <br /><br />I wonder if the missing scenes exist somewhere, it would be so amazing to see the Why Do I Love You lost scene someday.Renahttp://www.facebook.com/renifilinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1251568927451439906.post-53798367653122219812011-02-09T08:44:12.485-08:002011-02-09T08:44:12.485-08:00What’s there to say: The best of all versions - a ...What’s there to say: The best of all versions - a superb cast and wonderful music. I just love Irene singing "After the Ball" (it's heart-breaking) and her "The room above me" with Allan Jones (don't miss her cute laughter after the song). And I miss "Why do I love you" terribly. It doesn’t matter if Irene was almost 40 in real life… she had to wait more than five years to finally appear in the movie version of her beloved Show Boat which she certainly played to perfection in the road company… I believe her entirely that she’s just a young girl or that she’s an older woman, cause as we know since Cimarron she’s a sheer marvel playing elderly women. So, if you are in the mood for a musical, try Show Boat 1936 – the best of the best – and forget the 50s version. <br /><br />Thanks again for another great review, Susanne.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
