Flower Drum Song

USA 1961, 131 minutes
Dir. Henry Koster
English
Genres: Classics / Musical

Aroview: Amiable if overlong musical comedy telling the story of a Chinese girl who smuggles herself into San Francisco as a "picture bride" to marry a young man she has never seen.

Perhaps a visual treat more than an aural one, with choreography eclipsing one of Rodgers and Hammerstein's less memorable roster of songs.

3 stars (Good Enough) Not one of R & H's strongest, but certainly worth watching. An all Asian cast was groundbreaking for the USA at the time. ~Tubbs
