Thanks for this, Matt.

This title is also streaming on HBO Max.

I might end up with the disc eventually, but since it is on HBO Max and I have access to it, a barebones disc isn't a huge priority for me at this time.

There is a short clip from the film "Gigi" in my screener of this, but not "Can-Can". Has the "Gigi" clip with Hermione Gingold and Maurice Chevalier been substituted with one from "Can-Can" in the new blu ray?

 

[Matt Hough]

Don't know why a Gigi clip would be included. He never discusses Lerner and Loewe. He does discuss Cole Porter and Louis Jordan and Maurice Chevalier from Can-Can is shown.

My mistake. It was, of course, Can-Can.
