an unusual film for an audience outside the usa . lena horne look fabulous and so do ralph cooper . there be not add background of tap step a in other musical so you do not hear the beat of the tap which be great realism . music be mute to hear what dance step there be . act be a little stilted and the cast speak slowly so that you think the movie be old than it be . costume be dare for the time in the dance routine at the end . often feel like you be part of an audience at a stage show . what furniture you see be very modern which add to the movie feeling of other worldliness . a must for all film buff .
