2. The Band Wagon - VPRO Cinema
Verenigde Staten 1953. Musical van Vincente Minnelli. Met o.a. Fred Astaire, Cyd Charisse, Jack Buchanan, Oscar Levant en Nanette Fabray. Waar te zien?
'That’s entertainment!' schallen Fred Astaire en Cyd Charisse uit volle borst in The Band Wagon. In deze musical, met het wereldberoemde zang- en dansnummer, speelt Astaire een musicalster op zijn retour, en Cyd Charisse is de balletdanseres waarmee hij z'n comeback moet maken. Het werd een fris werk, met fantastische beelden van alles wat er achter de schermen speelt voordat een productie kan beginnen. Met als hoogtepunt der hoogtepunten de scène waarin de kibbelende sterren elkaar zonder dialogen vinden in een spontaan aanzwellende pas de deux in nachtelijk Central Park.

The Band Wagon (1953) is director Vincente Minnelli's and MGM's great movie musical (with Michael Kidd as choreographer) under the guidance of MGM producer Arthur Freed. The "backstage" movie musical was satirically self-mocking, and also took shots at show business and those who were involved in musical-dance productions. It was a light-hearted look at how an entertaining musical show could be foolishly updated, reinterpreted and rewritten as a highly-dramatic, ill-fated Faustian tale. At first, the resultant artsy and semi-dramatic musical product was a major flop, but then, through further revisions, it became a much improved and bigger musical hit. The film's insightful commentary illustrated the constant friction between two "genres" or art-forms of entertainment - serious drama and frothy musicals.

One of cinema’s best and most satisfying feel-good musical comediesOne of the greatest musicals from Hollywood’s golden days, “The Band Wagon” is a Technicolor treat. With a witty wink to musicals gone by, this clever film bursts with a vibrancy and joy that is nothing short of exuberant. A nearly unequaled blend of catchy tunes, fabulous dancing, and a cheerfully enjoyable story made it one of my favorite films as a kid (it remains one of my favorite musicals), and to this day it reliably appea

Famous musical movie star Tony Hunter (Fred Astaire) fears his career may be on the skids, but his friends, Lester (Oscar Levant) and Lily (Nanette Fabray), have written a Broadway vehicle to kick-start his professional life. Tony is ecstatic -- until egotistical director Jeffrey Cordova (Jack Buchanan) joins the project and casts ballerina Gaby Gerard (Cyd Charisse) as the leading lady. Tony's second chance seems to be fading, but he may get more than he bargained for as the show goes on.
