I have not watched it yet, but my only complaint about the film involves the cutting of The Baroness's songs, particularly "How Can Love Survive?" (much too good of a song to have been rendered obscure by Hollywood), as well.

Lehman just felt that The Baroness and Max should not be singing characters. What he wrote certainly works, but, damn, I miss those songs!

Ah..but the song was used in the movie..sort of.. The melody of How Can Love Survive was the underscoring waltz in the party scene

Me, too. Those two songs omitted from the '65 movie but mercifully resurrected for last night's broadcast are, well, "a few of my favorite things."
