      If this were an accurate statement they would be straight up in the middle with an increasing angle as it spreads out. Otherwise the middle letters would be at a huge angle and great space and overlapping between keys.
      If someone brought in a type writer like that for repair I’d offer to buy it for scrap parts.

    Kay Reynolds (Smitty) nicely asserts herself in this. Over the _decades_ I didn't watch How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying (1967) since seeing it with my parents fifty-five years ago. Then I found it on Tubi and I've watched the movie two or three times a week for the past six weeks. Also I appreciate Kay Reynolds in the "It's Been a Long Day" sequence in front of the elevator. I always look up when she sings, 'Make a bargain, make a date' while nudging Robert Morse. I admire all the details and color pallette for the entire production.

      Cool. How many performances were there? My daughter did Summer Stock in high school and a couple productions during the school year. This is over thirty years ago now. I liked how they performed their plays Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. My work schedule permitted me to attend each performance with my wife. It was a blast. Best wishes.

      You did miss out. I started working in an office (mail room actually) in 1969 when I was 16. From then, and throughout the 70s the office Christmas parties, and summer outings were wild and the coolest thing about them, the girls were naughtier than the guys. Management never chastised us because they participated. Sometimes far more salaciously than the rank-and-file employees. Things started to get more "orderly" in the 80s and by the 90s, when personnel departments because human resource departments, practically all the parties in the office were forbidden.

    The original show on Broadway was wonderful. And that's where it should have stayed. The film somehow managed to lose everything that was terrific about it. Bob Fosse should have been able to direct his original dances, and the whole film. I'm not sure if he turned the film version down or if he just didn't want to do it, but five songs from the show disappeared, and at least one filmed number, Coffee Break was cut from the movie. As it is, the film just looks like a play with a camera put in front of everyone. This front and center approach works on a stage, but a film needs to be cinematic. Robert Morse by the way, RIP, disliked the film intensely.

      You don't say. However he didn't think twice about doing Mad Men that many felt was inspired by This Movie as well as Down With Love and The Best Of Everything written by Rona Jaffe.

      I feel like while your right, I think this film is also reflective if Filmmaking abilities at the time. So many movies from this era are shot like this. It's like they don't have much technology to experiment with the cinematography in the studios. But I need to watch more 60s movies. But it's usually the really experimental ones I've seen that create the cinematography we see today.
