![]() Rating: - Musical Numbers & Grable Star Power Outweigh Uninspired Material20th Century Fox had an impressive track record with musicals during the 1930s and 1940s, turning out one box office smash after another--but for all their great popularity at the time they were not usually liked by the critics and most film historians tend to be dismissive of them even to this day. There is a reason for that: although they were well designed and well crafted, they were seldom innovative and they existed as star vehicles plain and simple, flyweight creations shot through with lots ...

Rating: - fluffy little diversionFor an afternoon of sunny nostalgia, you can't do much better than THE DOLLY SISTERS, featuring the fabulous talents of Betty Grable and June Haver. Loosely-based on fact, the story follows the loves and fortunes of the Dolly Sisters, Jenny (Betty Grable) and Rosie (June Haver), from small-time Budapest emigrees to the bright lights of Broadway and international fame. Along the way, Jenny falls in love with handsome composer Harry Fox (John Payne), but quickly realises that any relationship ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
