This is absolutely the best film ever! Great story about being a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman for a change. Julie Andrews is great playing such a role.
The film is easy to be loved to see. One might have seen this film more than 30 times , and still not tired of it.
The musical numbers are mostly confined to the nightclub stage. Among the songs and music by Henry Mancini and Leslie Briscusse are "Crazy World," "Cherry Ripe," "Gay Paree," "Le jazz Hot," "The Shady Dame from Seville," "Chicago, Illinois," "You and Me," "King's Can-Can," and various reprises. The film won an Academy Award for Best Music, Original Song Score or Adaptation Score. It was also nominated in a slew of other Oscar categories, and Julie Andrews won a Golden Globe for best actress in a comedy/musical.
Julie Andrews sang this very sweet melody with good lyric meaning.
Crazy world(from Victor/Victoria 1982)
Music by Henry Mancini
Lyrics by Leslie Briscusse
Sung by Julie Andrews
Crazy World
Full of crazy contridictions, like a child.
First you drive me wild, and then you win my heart
With your wicked art.
One minute tender, gentle, then tempermental as a summer storm.
Just when I believe your heart's getting warmer, you're cold, and you're cruel.
And I like a fool, try to cope, try to hang on, to hope.
Crazy worldEvery day the same old roller coaster ride.
But I've got my pride, I won't give in.
Even though I know I'll never win.
Oh, how I love this crazy world.
