| | Worth seeing for the muscle | Candy Kane 01/28/2007 | | Athena had a dumb story and some stupid songs, but it features Steve Reeves and Dick Dubois, two of the best built and handsomest bodybuilders of the day. The parts where Steve Reeves is flipped by Edmund Purdom is pure science fiction. |

Great dancing highlights this fanciful musical about seven brothers in 1850s' Oregon who "kidnap" seven women chosen as their brides. An avalanche prevents the girls' relatives from rescuing them, and love blooms before the spring thaw. An Academy Award went to the film for Best Musical Score, and a nomination was received for Best Picture along with three other nominations.
