The older one gets, the more appreciable one feels about old musicals made with songs sung by tenors no longer with us. The Student Prince, a movie made two generations ago, still gives Mario Lanza's songs a warm feeling watching the story and seeing it before your eyes.
This film did not feature Mario Lanza in person, but his songs did. The movie's plot with faults and all, was enjoyable yet not outstanding, but the film lives to this day because of Mario Lanza's famous songs. Sure, one can listen to a record or CD, but the story and songs together only come to life in this film.
