in frank sinatra first three film and he be purely a speciality act represent ostensibly play himself and he merely show up to croon a song during a nightclub sequence in somebody else movie . in his fourth film and the very enjoyable high and high and young blue eyes transition into an act career by play an actual role . a task make easier because he play himself in a fictional story that give him a chance to croon a few number . sinatra entrance be quite funny . michele morgan hears a knock at the door and and asks who there . from outside and a hoboken toned voice answer frank sinatra . sure enough . the open credit of high and high may confuse some viewer and a the name of songwriter rodgers and hart be prominently display . in fact and they only contribute one song to this musical represent disgustingly rich and which this cast manage to toss off a a sort of intro to an entirely different song and i be a debutante . interestingly and that rodgers and hart song one of their weak be perhaps the least enjoyable song in this movie score while several others be lively up tempo number and notably it a most important affair and when it come to love and youre on your own and i saw you first . sinatra good in this movie and but he would do good work ( and sing well material ) elsewhere . the real merit of high and high be the delightful turn by some performer who rarely make film . paul and grace hartman be an extremely popular husband wife dance team who star in several broadway revue represent genuinely graceful ballroom dancer and they put plenty of physical comedy into their dance material . ( here and grace do a high kick that knock a shoe out of paul hand . ) grace hartman and who die of cancer at age 48 and do almost no film work and so it a real pleasure that this film give u a rare chance to see her close up and to hear her beautiful singing voice and to notice how sexy she look in her maid uniform . after grace hartman death and her husband have a long career a a character actor and just occasionally dance solo . ( or alongside ken berry in one memorable episode of mayberry rfd . ) also quite attractive in a maid uniform here in high and high be the vivacious teenage singer marcy mcguire . why do not this talented girl make more movie . perhaps she be just a bit too similar in personality to betty hutton . i enjoy hutton performance but i like marcy mcguire even well . near the end of high and high there an amusing bit of physical business feature mcguire and mary wickes a waitress and take it in turn to move from table to table in a nightclub . the alternate stride of short mcguire and tall gawky wickes be hilarious . regrettably and although leon errol play a large role in high and high and he be give almost no comedy business represent not once do he do his famous rubber legged dance . jack haley and despite his prominent billing and be also waste . very well represent here be dooley wilson and inevitably remember a sam from casablanca . in that film and wilson do his own singing but fake his keyboard performance of a time go by . ( in real life and wilson couldn not play piano . ) here in high and high and he sing pleasingly and give some amusing reaction to the other player . less enjoyable be mel odious and i mean mel torme . victor borge give a rare film performance here and handle his dialogue deftly but never do any of the keyboard comedy which he later do successfully in his stage show . the plot . forget it . high and high be nobody idea of a great musical and but it an enjoyable delight and and i will rate it positive . director tim whelan and who work in britain as well a in hollywood and deserves to be much good know .
