About this movie

Rodgers and Hammerstein's Academy Award®-winning "South Pacific" is a towering musical masterpiece and the tender love story of a naive young Navy nurse (Mitzi Gaynor) and an older French Plantation owner (Rossano Brazzi) on a U.S. occupied South Sea island. The breathtaking score is highlighted by some of the most romantic songs ever written: "Some Enchanted Evening," "There is Nothin' Like a Dame," "Younger Than Springtime" and more. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, South Pacific ranks among the most celebrated of Rodgers and Hammerstein's acclaimed musicals.

Ratings and reviews

Would have loved to have a full frame version of the movie, trailer was deceiving to put in full frame SD scenes. When watching this HD digital version, a lot of the scenes were zoomed and panned in a way that loses the scenery or the feeling from the full frame versions. A lot of scenes had cutoff heads when showing close ups or large groups of people. "There's Nothing Like a Dame" scenes are absolutely ruined by this. 2 Stars for this HD digital version, I had to give it any stars because it still has the story I remember, otherwise I'd rather buy versions actually gives me the full scenes.

The movie doesn't work. It plays but you see nothing and hear just the music.

I can't see the show
