The Music Man (1962)


Currently this title is unavailable.
The Music Man, the joyful film of the 1,375-performance Broadway smash, remains a skyburst of Americana as irresistible as 4th of July fireworks. Robert Preston recreates his Tony-winning Broadway triumph as "Professor" Harold Hill, a con artist arriving in River City, Iowa, to form a boys band, much to the early disapproval... and later delight of town librarian and piano teacher Marian Paroo (Academy Award winner Shirley Jones). Buddy Hackett, Hermione Gingold, Paul Ford and 7-year-old Ron Howard (once TV's Opie, now one of Hollywood's hottest directors) co-star.
Meredith Willson's sassy, brassy score, with hits like the rambunctious Ya Got Trouble, the tender Till There Was You and the untoppable Seventy-Sic Trombones, is orchestrated to Oscar-winning effects by Ray Heindorf.
