### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy's Greatest Film
*by J***F on July 7, 2015*

The first two MacDonald-Eddy movies were such big hits that MGM went all out for Maytime, their third musical. It remains one of their best and is often listed as a fan favorite. The film opens with a small town Mayday celebration complete with maypoles and children's choirs. We are introduced to "Miss Morrison" an elderly woman who lives quietly in the town and is the confidante of two young neighbors, Barbara Roberts and her boyfriend, Kip Stuart. Barbara tells her she has a chance to go to New York and become a big singing star, perhaps as big as Marcia Mornay had been. Later Kip tells her how much he loves Barbara and is afraid of losing her.When Barbara returns, Miss Morrison talks with her, revealing to her that she was, in fact, Marcia Mornay and this begins the recollection of her life as an unknown taken up by Nicolai Nazaroff who has made her a famous diva as the scene opens grandly on an incredibly opulent set with hundreds of extras:it's a ball at the court of Napoleon III and she is about to sing for the emperor and his guests. And sing she does as she goes into one of her most requested numbers," La Fille de Cadiz" by Delibes, and follows that up with a rousing "La Marseilles". By night's end she has not only triumphed at the ball but also said yes to Nicolai's proposal of marriage, though it seems more out of duty and respect than love. Then she meets young baritone Paul Allison (Nelson Eddy) and the rest of the film unfolds from there.There is wonderful singing, as one would expect from this pair. Originally Maytime had been a hit on Broadway in 1919. The entire operetta genre was supposed to be dead after the Twenties when single-handed, Mac/Eddy revived it all starting with Naughty Marietta in 1935. so for this film the original composer, Sigmund Romberg Threw out all the songs but "Do You Remember (Sweetheart)" which became the duo's great signature love song, and added new material including a medley of soprano arias for Jeanette from Lucia di Lammermoor, William Tell, Faust, Tannhauser and Tristan und Isolde. In addition he created an imaginary opera for them, "Czaritza", based on the first movement of Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony which is fully staged as though it was the last act of this opera.Jeanette and Nelson are supported by an excellent group of actors including John Barrymore as Nicolai, and Herman Bing in a funny Mittel-European role as Paul's music instructor. Even minor roles are well and convincingly done. This film has everything a fan would want and is also a wonderful introduction to the MacDonald-Eddy films altogether.Miss Morrison's lesson for Barbara is that true love is a greater thing than even the greatest singing career as her own story has shown. The ending of the film is well-known but I wouldn't dare reveal it to you. Just be prepared to be deeply touched.
