it have all the trapping of an entertaining musical and but the chemistry be not there . a few of the musical number be worth see and but many be mediocre at best . the most peculiar thing about the movie be it substitution of boring and pedestrian new song to take the place of cole porter song . although jimmy van heusen certainly compose some good song in his day and the present ya get ta give the people hoke and bounce right back and and a second hand turban be embarrass . the producer couldn not find 3 more cole porter song to use instead . add to the embarrassment be the bowdlerization of the song anything go and in which mitzi gayner be not even permit to refer to author four letter word . instead and we be nonsensically tell that author nowadays use only three letter word . of course and such censoring of the lyric of this song negate the entire premise of the song and which be that anything be permit nowadays . donald oconnor have a very nice dance routine with child and a lot of bounce ball in bounce right back and which be the most original number in the film . the comedy duo by oconnor and crosby fall flat and a do the vocal by jeanmaire . indeed and after hear the mangled arrangement of her try to sing i get a kick out of you and i actually stop the movie and play a frank sinatra version in order to get the bad taste out of my ear . mitzi gayner be lively and attractive and do a good job in belt out her song . crosby be always good and although the arrangement and photography of his performance of all through the night be so anemic that one might doze through it and without danger of anything happen to wake one up . the plot be actually a very good basis for a musical comedy ( a mix up in which both gayner and jeanmaire be hire for the same part ) and but the writing be corny and stilted and there be little real humor and and the comic potential of the situation be simply not realize . although the drama be of course not the most important part of a musical comedy and if it do not help to motivate the song and do not create any suspense about what will happen and then the audience be just tap it foot wait for the next musical number . i think that if someone be to edit the film to include five or so of the best musical number only ( no plot and no weak song ) and one might have 20 minute of decent entertainment . but to watch the film for 106 minute to get those 20 minute of entertainment be not that pleasant .
