A suon di musica

This is almost a flawless film, the minor setbacks being the musical numbers - even though the songs are very good, the dances are not well staged and during the final revue the male dancers actually look as if they have no choreography at all! Probably the good choreographers were busy staging some Marika Rökk musical in another studio... And the ladies' orchestra with their instruments of glass don't seem to have any idea how to hold a trumpet or clarinet in their hands! The poor girl who is required to portray the trumpet player probably hadn't seen this instrument blown in real life and looks more as if she is trying to suck the music out of the horn. If you are willing to turn a blind eye, you'll have a well written and directed film with very fresh actors. Some of the dialog between the two leads is really heartwarming. A good film indeed.
