Haven't seen the original film but this was a lot of fun. The score is so-so but the story is solid, and there's terrific dance numbers with the news boys leaping and stomping around plus decent ballads, a funny doubting song for the heroine, and rousing moments. Poverty and the working class are effective in musicals I guess. It's fun.
