I am somehow just finding out that Du Barry Was A Lady is out on Blu-Ray. This was a staple growing up. Hardly perfect, but I long to see this in HD. Whether it actually holds up or not, the cast is killer: Lucille Ball, Red Skelton, Zero Mostel, and Gene Kelly, and that's just for starters.

They're all in their early 30s (except Zero who is somehow 28!) in this movie, which is kind of blowing my mind. Also not *all* of it holds up. There is indeed a white man doing a voice he shouldn't be doing during one of many non-plot entertainment interludes.
