...Body Beautiful (music and lyrics by Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick; book by Joseph Stein and Will Glickman) is wholeheartedly, though in spots enjoyably, mediocre. Treating of the fight world, it drapes the plot round a rich, handsome Dartmouth graduate who wants to box his way to glory and falls in love with a girl who disapproves.

The effect is of a nightclub talent not so much fighting his way out of a musicom-edy frame...

A good part of the time-thanks to Broadway as well as Amish industriousness-it is refreshingly lively; the rest of the time it seems-as the Amish themselves might-refreshingly dull. The whole thing has about it a nice country smell of ripe apples and respectable oddity...
