Description
"Arthur Parker says, 'I want to live in a world where the songs come true.' In that world, bank tellers would eagerly hand out sacks of Depression-era dough to him, every cloud would have a silver lining, and Arthur's loveless marriage to Joan would give way to boop-boop-a-doop bliss with passionate Eileen. [A] razzle-dazzler in which lip-synched 1930s songs contrast with characters' lives, Herbert Ross directs Dennis Potter's movie adaptation of his landmark TV miniseries, filming on sets that recreate Depression-era artwork and bringing a savvy touch to vibrant musical numbers"--Container.
