"MGM's Technicolor valentine" (Leonard Maltin) to one of Broadway's longest running musicals comes resplendently to life in this "✶✶✶✶ powerful [and] lavish remake" (Blockbuster Entertainment Guide) that garnered an Oscar® nomination* for its magnificent score. Kathryn Grayson, Ava Gardner and Howard Keel star in this "joyous experience" (The New York Times) which includes such familiar show-stoppers as "Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man," "Bill" and "Ol'Man River!"
For lovely Magnolia Hawks (Grayson), the Cottom Blossom Riverboat is home - until dashing gambler Gaylord Ravenal (Keel) steals her heart away. In fairytale fashion, they leave for a whirlwind honeymoon and a whirl- wind lifestyle. Until, many years later, the couple again discovers the simple pleasures of love and happi- ness aboard the Cotton Blossom.
