Here is what people are saying about the Call Me Madam
4 Star Rating  ""Hey, boss, where the heck is Lichtenburg?""2009-10-30
- Reviewed By starla20
Ethel Merman's greatest triumphs were on the Broadway musical stage, where she starred in such shows as "Annie Get Your Gun", "Something for the Boys", "Girl Crazy", "Happy Hunting" and "Gypsy". On the screen, however, Merman wasn't so lucky. The only stage performance which Merman was granted the opportunity to cement on film was Sally Adams, the Washington hostess with the mostes', in Irving Berlin's CALL ME MADAM.

Assigned to the tiny European duchy of Lichtenburg, Washington society hostess-turned Ambassador Sally Adams (Ethel Merman) is soon up to her neck in romance and mayhem. The kingdom is broke and needs a loan from the States, but Sally won't be swayed by their overtures...until the handsome Foreign Minister (George Sanders) starts making overtures of his own! Meanwhile, Sally's assistant Kenneth (Donald O'Connor) literally falls head over heels for the lovely Princess Maria (Vera-Ellen).

Ethel Merman's brash vocal style was best suited to the zippy music of Irving Berlin, and the CALL ME MADAM score was especially-tailored to her unique gifts. "The Hostess with the Mostess on the Ball" is a fantastic opener, and things get even better with "Can You Use Any Money Today?", ''That International Rag", and "You're Just in Love". Merman doing pensive or romantic ballads was always an uneasy combination, but "The Best Thing for You" is actually the one number I adore most in this score. George Sanders reveals a strong and emotive singing voice in a rare musical role; Vera-Ellen's vocals (for "The Ocarina", "It's a Lovely Day Today" and "Something to Dance About") were dubbed by Carole Richards.

The DVD includes audio commentary with musical theatre historian Miles Krueger, two trailers, plus sneak peeks at other musicals available from Fox ("All That Jazz", "The Rose", "The Commitments", "Star!", "The Sound of Music", "Roxie Hart").
 
5 Star Rating  "ETHEL UNLEASHED!"2009-09-24
- Reviewed By lrrap
Accept no substitutes---there's only ONE Ethel Merman, and what better way to preserve her unique power and presence than this fine film version of her 1950 stage hit?

And Donald O'Connor's performance is equally fabulous---in fact, the Amazon reviewer who feels that 2 straight hours of Ethel is too much should at least acknowoledge the fact that Donald and Vera Ellen occupy a major amount of screen time on their own. And whereas the performance of Russell Nype in the role of Kenneth Gibson on Broadway created something of a sensation, he was apparently not a dancer; thus the casting of Donald O'Connor in the film version added a whole new musical dimension to the character, while providing us lucky viewers with another prime example of the whimsical charm and dazzling artistry of Mr. O'C.

There's just too much to praise in this wonderful film; I can only add to the chorus of praise by citing: the physical beauty of the production, the sumptuous and colorful musical arrangements/orchestrations by the great Alfred Neumann (check the gorgeous opening verse of "Marrying for Love"), George Sanders' charming and sympathetic performance (who? George Sanders?!?), in which we have the pleasure of hearing his own mellifluous bass-baritone singing voice (confirmed by theatre historian Miles Kreuger in his excellent commentary), the super-charming "It's a Lovely Day Today" scene in the record shop, with clever on-screen plugs for this delightful song between Donald and Vera, Mr. O'Connor playing (and destroying) a giant Marimba with his twinkle toes, etc.... I could go on.

My only complaint is the very static direction in the duets between Ethel and George Sanders. There's only so long they can keep staring at each other adoringly before you want to shout at the screen: "Move a bit, for Pete's sake!" The great Berlin tune "The Best Thing for You", which I have always felt gets short-changed as the magnificent song that it is, is similarly affected by the blocking. Even the delightful "Money" song is sabotaged by this stand-and-deliver approach; why couldn't Ethel have gone to her desk and started to write a check while singing---something---ANYTHING to give the screen a bit of movement! Then again, the dynamic energy of Ethel Merman just standing and singing at close range is perhaps as much as we should safely expose ourselves to!

In any case, CALL ME MADAM is a delight from beginning to end, and as fine a tribute to the bright, tuneful, fun-filled fifties as you are likely to find.
 
5 Star Rating  "This is my favorite movie!!"2008-10-22
- Reviewed By User: A2JVMCG3YLOUFI
I'm a huge fan of Donald O'Connor, and had no idea this movie existed until reading some of his biography online. So after watching some clips on YouTube and finally renting it from Netflix, I was hooked and bought it. Irving Berlin's music is fantastic, as always, and Ethel Merman does a super job belting out her songs while providing some humor along the way. George Sanders is perfect in his role as the foreign minister, and his singing is heartwarming and pleasant. And let's not forget the singing AND dancing of O'Connor and Vera-Ellen! Watching the two of them together makes you feel like you're in a different place in a different time. Highly recommended.
 
4 Star Rating  "Last of the great musicals..."2008-09-20
- Reviewed By User: A30VQFT11AMNQ8
This was Ethel Merman at her best. Even if you're not a fan, this is a cute movie with lovely songs and great dancing. The story is a bit silly and dated, but the acting and inside jokes keep it from being totally inane. The commentary was a little too dry. That was something that could have used some more Hollywood sparkle and less of a history lesson. Anyway, it was great to see Donald O'Connor in his prime and the duet with Ethel was a knockout. Just try and get some of those Irving Berlin songs out of your head after you watch this!
 
4 Star Rating  "The best commentary ever"2008-01-28
- Reviewed By wang_tc
All other reviews has talked about how wonderful this movie is, but there is one more reason to own this movie. The commentary by musical film scholar Miles Kreuger is great! It is almost like a lesson in musical history. He gives so much information on Mr, Berlin, all the actors,, even dance and costume. If you love musical, you just have to watch this movie with the commentary on for once, you will surprise how much you can learn about this movie.
