Amazon.com essential video:
James Stewart, at his warmest and most avuncular, plays the bandleader who rocketed to fame during the swing era. The Glenn Miller Story may be a whitewashed version of Miller's life, but it certainly is a pleasant example of the feel-good Hollywood biopic, with the usual conventions: early struggles, loyal wife (June Allyson at her chirpiest), personal sacrifice--Miller joins the Army when war breaks out, although he doesn't have to--and ultimate tragedy. All the Glenn Miller classics filling the soundtrack make the film pretty easy to take, too: "Moonlight Serenade," "A String of Pearls," "Chattanooga Choo-Choo." Miller plays the great "In the Mood" with his military band during a World War II air-raid warning. Pure corn, but it works. Director Anthony Mann, better known for his superb series of hard-bitten fifties westerns with Stewart, keeps the story moving gently and gracefully. A hot jazz interlude features Louis Armstrong and Gene Krupa. --Robert Horton

- Just as I remembered!I had to share this video with my mom for Christmas as this is one of my earliest memories from my childhood. I remember watching it on TV and my mother humming the music for days afterwards. I was excited to find the title!

- Can't beat the old classic moviesIf you love Jimmy Stewart, this is the movie for you. Jimmy Stewart portrayed Glenn Miller with style and grace. Love it!
The scenes with the service men is very special to my family as my father was in this film and can be clearly seen. When this movie was on TV when I was growing up, we always watched it no matter the time of day. Now we can watch it over and over and pause it to get a better look.

- IncompatableDelivery service was great however, I then found I could not play DVD on my TV. We had to watch it through the computer which tells me I can only change the format a limited number of times?
Wonder if it is possible to order DVD's which are compatable with UK TV format?

- Good Movie!This is a good movie, especially if you like the music of Glenn Miller. It's a bit slow but overall good.
