In 1954 MGM produces the movie SEVEN BRIDESE FOR SEVEN BROTHERS directed by Stanley Donen; the magical fusion between the screenplay, the music and the extraordinary choreography by Michael Kidd made it one of the most entertaining and long-lived musicals on the big screen, a cult that has been re-proposed by the TV even today with great ratings. The music by Adolph Deutsch and Saul Chaplin won an Oscar and the movie won four nominations for best movie, best screenplay, best photography and best editing.
