Summary: Three Little Words
Comment: My mom was simply thrilled to get this. She is a collector of old movies and has alot! This came very quickly and was in very good condition.
Customer Rating:
Summary: An emblematic musical!
Comment:
Two famous songwriters' story : Kalmar and Ruby is shown magisterially by a fine direction of Richard Thorpe and a bouncing cast that included the charismatic Fred Astaire, the sympathetic red Skelton, plus the combined talents of Vera- Ellen and Arlene Dahl one of my favorite beauties of the American Cinema.
From start to finish, the script is so dynamic and fluid, loaded with tender, funny and human situations, that will engage you; even you are not a hard fan of musicals, because this film is quite above the average.
One of my eternal cult musical movies.

Summary: Far and Away the most enjoyable musical of the era.
Comment: Before watching this movie, I had never heard the names of Bert Kalmar or Harry Ruby! And now I can only say what a wealth of sheer musical talent I missed until now!
As far as the film is concerned, I have to say this and "Lovely to Look At" have got to be the very best things that "over-the-top" comedian, Red Skelton has ever done. It's such a joy to watch him in an almost dramatic - (and human} role!
As for Fred Astaire, what can I say? He's just Fred Astaire - and that's enough to guarantee a very watchable film.
I still regard the number performed by Arlene Dahl in the movie as one of the finest production numbers I have ever seen (with the possible exception of a hundred others choreographed by the brilliant Bob Fosse! And a few by Buz. Berkeley!)
And what a thrill to see the young Debbie Reynolds impersonating Helen Kane!!! Too much!!

Customer Rating:
Summary: GREAT MUSICAL
Comment: THIS WAS A WONDERFUL STORY OF TWO SONGWRITERS WHO MEET BY CHANCE TO FORM A WONDERFUL WRITING TEAM.
FRED ASTAIRE AND RED SKELTON WERE SENSATIONAL. PERFECTLY MATCHED FOR THE ROLES. SONGS WERE CATCHY AND MEMORABLE. STILL POPULAR TODAY.
