Summary: Classic music and 40's kitsch spectacular
Comment: Just watched on TMC while ill. Expected romantic soap opera and to turn it off. Instead was rewarded with great music: Tommy Dorsey AND opera and more, as well as fabulous Technicolor 40's fashion, cars, interiors, and kitsch, not to mention the stupendous Esther Williams' diving and pool scenes. Also, great scenic outdoor shots of hiking in the high Rockies. Actually, came on web to find out where it was shot, and left this review. Better than expected. Actually this is a good intro to the opera-phobic to see how great and fun it can be in an updated, non-formal staging context.

Summary: Great Entertainment
Comment: A great story but not worth $75 - 85 dollars! This is an amazing hipe for putting dollars before the storyline. The movie is a wonderful love story which happens to anybody in this world during the war years. Still overpriced in the market - beware of this. If found @ a garage sale or Used VHS shops, buy it and you will have a lovely hour or so of entertainment.

Summary: I very highly recommend this delightful film!
Comment: Esther Williams and Van Johnson make a perfect romantic couple in this film, and realy shine in this film. "A Thrill of a Romance," has a great plot, and interesting people. The songs and swim scenes with Esther are lovely as well.It's a bout a young swimming teacher, named Cynthia who marries a buisness men after he shortly couts her and weds her, only to find that before the honeymoon, he leaves her for a buisness trip. Trerribly lonely and sad, Cynthia cries on her balcony, and a young man who is in the military hears her cry, they meet, and have a romance, by the time her husband is ready to come back, they have fallen in love. It's a film well worth seeing.
