It was long and labored, it was a movie where the people hated yheir life and america's strong backbone. I saw it as a movie that took shpts at the country and anyone or thing that was involving work or having to earn thimgs. A real bad message for ypith and onner cities. The college student saod she was asled to take a tray to the kitchen, how quaint. Getting tired of this. Its not divided, i grew up in a melting pot. Now its not.

without getting into all the downer reviews, I watched this movie and delighted in the characters...Jack Benney was funny, Phil Harris was great, Dottie Lamour was THE girl of 1939, she is alluring, exotic, classy, and sings like an angel. Betty Grable is gorgeous and Edward Arnold and Monty Wooley do superb supporting comedy characters. The show becomes very memorable when they show the stage acts. The singing is terrific and Eddie Anderson (Rochester) is the true highlight. He is on of the greatest hoofers I have ever seen, he is graceful and modern. The chorus lines were full of great routines and beauty. I bought the movie and I'd buy it again. I could easily give it a 10 but it didn't have enough Lamour.
