Gwynnie's Mom beat out Betty Buckley when the original Broadway cast of 1776
filmed the movie version of the successful musical. When I saw Ms. Danner onstage in Follies, a friend said he constantly wanted her to just cough up a loogie to get that gurgle out of her voice. You don't hear it so much on this track. "He Plays The Violin" is a truly lovely moment in 1776 for Blythe. Her singing is competent and sweet, and the orchestra works up a damn good lather. It's beautifully filmed in the backyard of Thomas Jefferson's brownstone, dancing around fountains and gardens on a colonial summer's day...so much fun. So much fun.
