Archival 35mm Print! STATE FAIR
1962, 20th Century Fox, 118 min, USA, Dir: Jose Ferrer
This bright and cheery CinemaScope 1960s remake relocates the state fair from Iowa to Texas and employs the charms of musical golden girl Ann-Margret as a singer who threatens to lure hometown boy Wayne (Pat Boone) away from his long-time girlfriend. Enjoy "Our State Fair," "It Might as Well Be Spring" and all the gloriously infectious Rodgers & Hammerstein tunes all over again!
