small town girl be a 1953 musical from the mgm stable about a rich playboy ( farley granger ) who get arrest for drive too fast through a small town and fall for the sheriff pretty young daughter ( jane powell ) . nothing really special here and granger and powell be charm enough and but this film will always standout in my mind because of two musical number perform by support player ann miller and bobby van . both of these number would later be feature in different installment of thats entertainment . you get ta hear that beat be a sizzling production number feature ann miller dance amongst a disembodied orchestra where you only see the arm or hand of the orchestra playing various instrument . the second number take me to broadway featured van a a human pogo stick and bounce his way all over town and greet people and interact with people and place in town and but he never stop hop . it just an amazing number and because of these two musical highlight and small town girl be a film i will always remember .
