Summary: LOVED IT!!!
Review: I LOVE THIS MOVIE. I GREW UP WATCHING IT ALMOST EVERY DAY. I TOO WOULD LIKE TO SEE "THE ONE AND ONLY GUENUINE ORIGINAL FAMILY BAND" ALSO STARRING LESLEY-ANN WARREN. IT TOO WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITES. THE MUSIC IN THE HAPPIEST MILLIONAIRE IS FUN. ESPECIALLY "I'LL ALWAYS BE IRISH". AFTER HEARING THAT SONG I FIND MYSELF SINGING IT FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. I ALSO LOVE THE ALLIGATORS. I AM A REPTILE LOVER MYSELF. I RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE TO EVERYONE, AND HOPE MY OWN DAUGHTER WILL LOVE IT AS MUCH AS I DO. THANK YOU GRANDMA FOR INTRODUCING ME TO SUCH A WONDERFUL, FUN FILLED MOVIE, AND FOR BROADENING MY HORIZON.

Summary: One and Only Genuine Original Family Band
Review: Alright, I admit it - John Davidson was my schoolgirl crush. I grew up watching Happiest Millionaire and to this day I just love that guy. My question is, now that I've got Happiest Millionaire in my video collection, when can we expect One and Only Genuine Original Family Band? I've tried asking Disney Store people but no one seems to remember the movie. Anyone out there know what I'm talking about? It's another great musical with Lesley Ann Warren and John Davidson. Classic Disney. Let's call Michael Eisner if we have to. This movie has got to be made available.

Summary: I Love This Film!
Review: This is such a cute movie. Good, clean, fun. A great buy for the whole family. Tommy Steele is excellent as the butler.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Detroit! Its Detroit!! A good movie to show the young ones
Review: This is a witty, funny, classic, run about film. I watched it as a kid and loved it! You'll love Mr. Biddle and his alligators i did as kid and hopefully yours will to.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Happy to Watch
Review: Cheerful music, pretty people, cute clothes and based on a true story. Entertaining even if it is years and years old. This is the "lost" or "hidden" Disney film - I loved it as a kid and now my kids adore it too. Glad it's still in print.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just a Plain Feel Good Movie
Review: I don't know about anyone else but seeing Tommy Steele walking the alligator was worth the whole movie not mention the hilarious duet between Gladys Cooper and Geraldine Page. For a couple of hours of sitting in the dark with a big bowl of popcorn on a quiet evening you can't beat this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Musical
Review: I have watched this movie hundreds of times since I was a kid. It is a great movie for all ages with numerous concurrent plots. A must have for anyone who likes musicals and/or family movies.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If I could vote it a 10 I would
Review: This movie has been my favorite film since I was 4 years old. I know the words to every song, the moves to every dance, and even the minute that lines are qued in the film... a sad testiment I know, but it is the only movie that I have continued to love my entire life. The movie is a true story, based off of the play written by Ms. Coredlia Biddle Duke that was published around 1030's. If you are wanting to purchase the film, please make sure that it is in fact the Road-Show-Edition, which is the full length film, wihtout being edited for time... it is slightly longer, but you get several more songs that make the movie the most spectacular Disney adventure ever.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Fun!
Review: It's wonderful to see the roadshow version out on DVD-it has been shown on the Disney Channel, but from poorer source material than this, and a short dialog sequence setting up the final number was still missing. But it is all here, and the transfer is stunning-Disney always demanded the best from Technicolor, and it shows. For those that only saw the 118-minute version, this is a must!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Disney Family Video teaches Great Family Values!
Review: I am a fan of Fred MacMurray and so I love this film. However, aside from that this movie is great because is portrays a family that is very close. They are unique and proud of it. The children are taught that being different is good and that the family is most important. I believe that one of America's major problems is that the families are so divided. I love the relationship Cordy has with her father and the relationship between the parents. Cordy's life does not revolve around her friends. Those types of relationships are needed in the world today. The father does not come off looking like a goofball with a wife who has to "fix" him and make him socially acceptable. It is very refreshing to see a Disney movie that is portraying famliy values. I also love the fact that it is a musical by the Sherman Brothers. It is based on the book "My Philadelphia Father" by Cordelia Drexel Biddle. I read the book and loved it. The video is very similar.
