I was fortunate to get a good copy of this 1955 broadcast on VHS. I was surprised at the good production values, direction (Max Liebman) and choreography (Rod Alexander) -- for early TV this was quite impressive. Nelson Eddy and and Gale Sherwood have an excellent blend of voices and do great justice to the soaring music of Sigmund Romberg.
The sets are primative, but work and the camera work itself is fluid and enjoyable. This is a real entertainment treat if you're able to locate a copy! My copy is Black and White, but the original was in NBC's early technicolor.
