“The Great Ziegfeld” is a three hour showcase glorifying the ideal American entrepreneur. A classist figure that swings wildly between giving to the working class and conning them into free labor, Mr. Ziegfeld would pull himself up by his bootstraps if his Louis Vuitton Diamond-Studded Oxfords had any. Watch as this movie insists one man can single-handedly change the world of art on his own and ignores all of the horror of producing underage showgirls. Director Robert Leonard spent a lot of money to win the Oscar for Best Picture but we think he should have spent that money on a editor.
