Based on a 1960 musical play which was based on the 1894 play Les romanesques by Edmond Rostand.
Musical. Two youngsters who live next door to each other have a romance which they try to keep secret because their respective fathers are apparently enemies. Actually the latter have been putting up a pretended enmity in order to encourage their offspring's relationship through rebelliousness. Something goes awry when they hire a circus man to help them with their plans.
Agreeable in all senses; I don't feel exactly prone to an analysis of its precise shortcomings if any. I did feel however that this is the sort of work that calls for the immediacy of a stage for best enjoyment. Perhaps this is why I didn't have an even better time with it.
