VHS Rosalie Diamond Jubilee Collection Nelson Eddy Elanor Powell Clam Shell

VHS Rosalie Diamond Jubilee Collection Nelson Eddy Elanor Powell Clam Shell Scintillating Eleanor Powell dances to Nelson Eddy's tune in Rosalie, a spectacle of the golden age that brims with Cole Porter songs including "In the Still of the Night." Also starred are such favorites as Frank Morgan (immortalized as Oz's Wizard two years later), Edna May Oliver and Ray Bolger. Nelson plays Dick Thorpe, a West Point football hero (and intrepid aviator) who scores the winning touchdown in his final Army-Navy game, and falls heading in love with Rosalie (Powell), a sarcastic but very pretty Vassar student. Rosalie first spurns Dick, but after he comes thirty miles to sing beneath her window, she invites him to meet her at the Spring festival in her homeland, the microscopic Balkan kingdom of Romanza. Dick files over the Atlantic in his plane, not knowing that Rosalie is actually the daughter of Tomanza's reluctant King, whose overbearing Queen is determined that Princess Rosalie shall marry the son of the Chancellor. A rich and lively blend of great songs and great dances great comedy, and plain old period charm, Rosalie is the kind of zany musical they just don't make any more.
