This movie was a big deal at our house growing up (one if the networks would broadcast it once a year). My older sister would rent a color TV every year when it was on (we didn't pt get a color TV till 1981).

When the movie was shown I theaters in 2009, my 4 sisters and I took my mom to it (she had watched it in 1939 when she was 9) and we sang along with every song.
