This mediocre film has a good cast, and loving Janet Leigh's early films this is one I have looked for for years. It looks as if it was made in the early 1940's and not 1953, and Donald O'Connor, not in a top drawer film still shows how fine he was both as an actor and a dancer. But watch the film for co-starring Lori Nelson who was not Tab Hunter's ex as this site says. The women in his life were covers for his homosexuality which of course was well hidden then by obliging actors such as Lori Nelson. He has written all this down and can be checked. Sadly Lori Nelson died this year and she brightened up any film she was in, even with films like ' Revenge of the Creature ', and at her best with Jane Russell and Richard Egan in ' Underwater ! '. I hope she will be remembered even for light hearted run of the mill musicals like this. The story is thin and no spoilers, but it passes a pleasant hour and almost a half. I like it for what it is and Janet Leigh is Janet Leigh. What higher compliment can I give her in praise of her shining bright beauty and a keen intelligent eye for right timing. Again I repeat sadly this is a review for Lori Nelson and her passing last Summer.
