For all the talent displayed in the film by Andrews, Edwards and several others, I happen to believe it is Preston's magnificent performance that makes "Victor/Victoria" so good. Take him out and what's left is just O.K.
Also, Preston turned down the offer(s)to revive "Music Man." Unlike many another star, he didn't care to keep doing what he had already done(so brilliantly)on stage and film.

Fortunately he welcomed the chance to recreate Harold Hill on film, and by all accounts he approached it as though he had never done it before. Shirley Jones said he never treated it as something he knew already at all.
