A classic of the American ballet stage. Legendary performers like Janet Reed and Todd Bolender, and composer, Virgil Thomson, and choreographer, Lew Christensen. Filmed in 1954 when d'Amboise was only 21 yrs-old, this is a rare gem. Ballets like these...one act story ballets based on American subject matter, used to be all the rage...like SOUVENIRS, BILLY THE KID, RODEO, FALL RIVER LEGEND, etc. Times change but it's important that the record exists.
