George Roy Hill directed this original musical set the 1920s that mixes pop standards with new tunes written by Sammy Cahn and James Van Heusen. Julie Andrews, in a role that recalls her Broadway triumph in The Boy Friend, stars as Millie Dillmount, who comes to New York is search of a secretarial job and an unattached boss. She moves into a hotel for women, run by kindly Mrs. Meers (Beatrice Lillie), and she befriends the pretty, petite orphan Dorothy Brown (Mary Tyler Moore). Millie finds work

Very underrated Julie Andrews musical, a cult favorite for many, including myself.

The current Broadway show has way more energy.

A bit overlong, but thoroughly enjoyable period musical.

The only pairing of archetypal girls-next-door Julie Andrews and Mary Tyler Moore

A true childhood favourite of mine, a very memorable tale with song and dance made famous by Julie Andrews.It's probably not as great as I remember it being, but there is still lots about this film that make it an enjoyable watch.

The movie version is a ton longer and more boring than the musical. Definite upgrade when Sutton Foster did it.
