Question
Hi, I remember seeing a movie when I was younger with Debbie Renolds. I'm not sure what it's called and I barely remember anything about it. I remember a house where a whole bunch of girls lived. They may  have been sisters. I remember a lot of the movie took place outside. I believe it was a musical. If you have any suggestions, send them over.. I can look up the plots and check. Thanks!

Answer
Hi Alisha,

I'm pretty sure that the movie your'e referring to is MGM's 1954 musical  "Athena"   (in CinemaScope and color,  which starred Debbie Reynolds,  and also  Jane Powell  and Vic Damone.

In it, Debbie and Jane were two of the seven sisters in a  family of health fanatics.  It's
available on Video, but not yet on DVD.

Let me know if this is the film you meant.
