Product Description:

Whether she was done up in a glittery Bob Mackie costume, or wearing little at all (as in her star-making turn in SOUTH PACIFIC), Mitzi Gaynor could capture the attention--and hearts--of any audience. This exuberant documentary looks back at the performer's annual television specials, which featured award-winning dance numbers from choreographers such as Peter Gennaro (ANNIE, WEST SIDE STORY) and Danny Daniels (THE TAP DANCE KID). This release also offers recent interviews with Gaynor as well as her fans and acolytes, including Kristen Chenoweth (WICKED), Carl Reiner, and Rex Reed.
