I grew up watching old Danny Kaye movies. When I found this one, I couldn't resist.
In the age of violence on TV, etc. I would sit with my girls and watch Hans and Peter leave their home and travel to Copenhagen and have wonderful adventures.
Despite the other comment, both of my daughters sat riveted to the screen during the ballet sequences. They loved the beauty and elegance.
But most of all, we all loved Danny. Hans was a character we quoted to each other on a regular basis. He said a few things that we still say. "That's what's nice about the world - people!" He reminds us that sex and violence don't need to be in entertainment in order to be enjoyable.
