Thoroughly Modern Millie (1967)

My Rating

Movie Info

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.

A bit overlong, but thoroughly enjoyable period musical.

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

Audience Reviews for Thoroughly Modern Millie

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.
