Free Music Review: Skip It!!
Hit: 1 Stars
A total waste. Glenn Close was too old, the rest of the cast dull. The one exception is Harry Connick who was ideally cast as Lt. Cable. The entire film, however is dreary and unmoving. Get the Carnegie Hall concert version with Reba. THAT is a masterpiece of a performance, and does true justice to this Rodgers and Hammerstein classic.
South Pacific (2001 Television Soundtrack) Poster
This soundtrack captures the March 2001 ABC-TV production of South Pacific, Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein's musical of passion, danger, and racial intolerance in the Pacific islands during World War II, based on James Michener's book. Somewhat ... mature for the role of Nellie Forbush (the spunky naval nurse made famous by Mary Martin in the original Broadway cast), Glenn Close proves an adequate singer in her renditions of "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair" and "A Wonderful Guy."In the men's roles, Rade Sherbedgia's voice lacks sufficient richness for Emile de Becque's ballads "Some Enchanted Evening" and "This Nearly Was Mine," while as Lt. Joe Cable, jazz-pianist-turned-crooner-turned-actor Harry Connick Jr. makes "Younger Than Springtime" suave rather than wide-eyed. Robert Pastorelli and Lori Tan Chinn are fine as Billis and Bloody Mary, respectively, and the grandly romantic score is mostly intact, missing "Happy Talk" but adding a bonus track of Connick and Close singing "My Girl Back Home," which was cut from the original production, restored for the 1958 film, and cut again for this production. If you enjoyed the television film, this might be a useful souvenir, but serious fans of the score can stick to the original Broadway cast or the complete two-disc recording from JAY. --David Horiuchi
