This movie version of a great American musical is far from perfect but, with a cast packed with Broadway experience, there are some delightful moments. However, despite the acting heft that Albert Finney brings to the pivotal role of Daddy Warbucks, his absence of musicality and apparent lack of interest in any of the musical numbers detracts from the rest of the films ebullience. As in Scrooge, Finney shows he is a fine actor but it is further proof that, whilst RADA may bring out passion and soul, it doesnt necessarily teach song and dance well.
