Some of the best musicals of the golden age of musicals are included in this box set. Music, dancing, and entertaining stories combine to make this a wonderful addition to any DVD collection. "Words and Music" (the story of legendary composers Rogers and Hart), "The Pirate," "The Belle of New York," "Royal Wedding," "The Toast of New Orleans," and "That Midnight Kiss" are all great films filled with memorable songs. Another film included in this set is the spectacular film "That's Dancing!," which looks at the history of dance and the history of dance on the big screen. With appearances by Gene Kelly, Sammy Davis, Jr., Liza Minnelli, Mikhail Baryshnikov, and Ray Bolger, this is an impressive collection of dance numbers from the archives of the Hollywood studios.

These films will have you longing for more. Even though we are in a high-tech age, these simple yet classic films are timeless. With legendary performances by Fred Astaire, Jane Powell, Kathryn Grayson, Mario Lanza, Gene Kelly, Judy Garland, and more, these movies have something that will appeal to everyone. Granted, they are not filled with special effects, but they do have the style and charm that have made them last for decades. The music is wonderful, and there are numerous special features like outtakes, "making of" features, and much more.

Musicals are making a comeback. Think of today's films "The Phantom of the Opera" and "Hairspray." In several decades they will most likely be included among classic musicals. The seven films in this set are indeed some of the classic musicals of the past.
