This is a good, sentimental, family film of 1947. It's a rather idealized viewpoint of how vaudeville was, with none of the downsides that we often see in such films. It's all sweetness.

The production standards here were very high, and the color is luscious.

Somehow, after all these years of watching old movies, I had never seen one with Betty Grable. This is the second I've seen recently, and I have to admit that I don't get it. She's a satisfactory actress, satisfactory dancer, and satisfactory singer. Frankly, Dan Dailey is more a natural here. Grable is "fine". Dailey is smooth. There are nice performances by the supporting cast.

This is almost too sweet to hold an audience today, but this film was very popular upon its theatrical release. It's worth a watch, but few will probably want it on their DVD shelf.
