This Academy Award winning 1954 musical was directed by Stanley Donen. It is set in Oregon in 1850 and is particularly known for its unusual choreography, which makes dance numbers out of such mundane frontier pursuits as chopping wood and raising a barn. Film critics have called the barn-raising sequence “one of the most rousing dance numbers ever put on screen." Join your instructor, Terry Dennison, to view this full-length film accompanied by his behind-the-scenes stories of the cast and his personal interactions with three of the film’s stars - Virginia Gibson, Norma Doggett, and Jane Powell. On display will also be photographs and memorabilia from this cinematic gem that the American Film Institute named as one of the best American musical films ever made.
