The plot of this enjoyable MGM musical is contrived and only occasionally amusing, dealing with espionage and romance but the focus of the film is properly pointed upon the tuneful interludes showcasing the enormously talented and athletic tap dancing Eleanor Powell, abetted by Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra, featuring Ziggy Elman, Buddy Rich and Frank Sinatra. Red Skelton shares top billing with Powell, and he and sidekick Bert Lahr are given most of the comedic minutes, although Skelton is more effective when he, if it can be believed, performs as Powell's love interest, with Virginia O'Brien actually providing most of the film's humor as the dancer's companion. The technical brilliance of Powell is evidenced during one incredible scene within which Buddy Rich contributes his drumming skills, and which must be viewed several times in order to permit one's breathing to catch up with her precision. Director Edward Buzzell utilizes his large cast well to move the action nicely along despite the rather disjointed script with which he must deal, and permits Powell's cotangent impossibilities to rule the affair, as is appropriate.

Intrigen i denna trevliga MGM musikal är påhittad och bara ibland underhållande, som handlar om spionage och romantik, men fokus i filmen är korrekt pekat på de melodiska mellanspel visar den enormt begåvade och atletiska stepp dans Eleanor Powell, med hjälp av Tommy Dorsey och hans orkester, med Ziggy Elman, Buddy Rich och Frank Sinatra. Red Skelton delar topfakturering med Powell, och han och sidekicken Bert Lahr får de flesta av de komiska minuterna, även om Skelton är mer effektiv när han, om det går att tro, uppträder som Powells kärleksintresse, varvid Virginia O'Brien faktiskt tillhandahåller det mesta av filmens humor som dansarens följeslagare. Powells tekniska briljans bevisas under en otrolig scen där Buddy Rich bidrar med sina trummande färdigheter, och som måste ses flera gånger för att låta ens andning komma ikapp hennes precision. Regissören Edward Buzzell utnyttjar sin stora rollbesättning väl för att flytta handlingen fint längs trots det ganska osammanhängande manus som han måste ta itu med, och tillåter Powells cotangent omöjlighet att styra affären, vilket är lämpligt. Är den här recensionen positiv eller negativ? ALTERNATIV: - negativ - positiv
The plot of this nice MGM musical is made up and only sometimes entertaining, which is about espionage and romance, but the focus of the film is correctly pointed to the melodic interlude shows the enormously talented and athletic tap dance Eleanor Powell, with the help of Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra, with Ziggy Elman, Buddy Rich and Frank Sinatra. Red Skelton shares top billing with Powell, and he and sidekick Bert Lahr get most of the comic minutes, although Skelton is more effective when, if it is possible to believe, he performs as Powell's love interest, with Virginia O'Brien actually providing most of the film's humor as the dancer's companion. Powell's technical brilliance is proven during an incredible scene in which Buddy Rich contributes his drumming skills, and which must be seen several times to allow one's breathing to catch up with her precision. Director Edward Buzzell makes good use of his large cast to move the action nicely along despite the rather incoherent script that he has to deal with, and allows Powell's co-key impossibility of governing the deal, which is appropriate.
