what this . ann miller play a singer ( with vocal obviously dub and i have hear her singing voice in mgm musical and and this ain not it ) instead of a dancer . seem like an odd casting choice . she play a runaway singing star on a wacky road trip with a reporter who initially only interested in her for the story or reward money and but ( i trust i be not spoil anything here and a the outcome be very predictable ) ultimately fall in love . sound familiar . substitute sing star with heiress and you have get the basic premise of it happen one night . minus frank capra directorial magic and robert riskin witty script and and charismatic star like gable and colbert . if you have never see it happen one night . go see it first . but if you happen to see eve know her apple first . just do not and okay . but if you do and you might find it a pleasant diversion . fan of the far superior film will probably feel nothing but dismay and disgust . how blatant be the theft . in the end and ann miller character dump her wealthy fiancé and and william wright and when question a to whether he love her and steal clark gable line and yes . but do not hold that against me and i be a little screwy myself . oh my . such direct theft only invite unfavorable comparison . and wright be no gable . i be amaze the writer of it happen one night weren not give any credit here . perhaps they be indignant and do not want to be associate with a tacky rip off of their classic . perhaps columbia simply felt entitle and since this studio release both film . but there a reason nobody heard of eve know her apple . i could make some crack about studio head be such snake and and how sinful it be to produce a cheap imitation that taint a beloved classic but you get the idea .
