The first repertory film to ever play at the Quad screened on this very date, October 18th, in 1972 — and triumphantly returns in gorgeous 35mm. Berkeley tries on the Technicolor dreamcoat for the first time and produces his most hallucinatory, outrageously erotic musical extravaganza as WWII soldier James Ellison finds himself in a romantic triangle quandary. It’s nonstop showstoppers amidst Oscar-nominated production design, but Carmen Miranda (and some awfully suggestive bananas) sambas away with the picture.
