Under-rated comedy full of inuendo
This movie was made as a comedic sexual comedy at a time when such things were really pretty tame by todays standards. The script is mediocre but the cast is great. The is a wild western that is safe for most audiences, but not quite family friendly due to the sexual inuendo. It Sells for a ...

A Lot of Fun and Great Musical Numbers
+ ELEANOR POWELL DANCING...WOW !!!
Everyone in this movie is terrific, and the story, about the humorously tempestuous relationship of a songwriting couple played by Ann Sothern and Robert Young, is one of the better ones among musicals of the period. The songs and dances are great, too, with two of the high points being Sothern's ...

You get what you pay for
This is a short, silly movie. The reason for having this tape is the singing of Richard Tauber, not quite at his best performing in English, but, nevertheless, one of the greatest tenors of the century. His screen character is given an Italian name -- not credible for a moment because his voice and ...
