I acquired this as a Christmas gift for my grandfather. He enjoys this film and searched extensively for it, ultimately only finding it on Amazon.

  • fun Betty Grable movie
Ok, by now reading all the reviews you get the idea "this is a very good movie" I also saw it in the Theater, so I ordered it, I was afraid that as with the DVD'S from Brazil this would be a copy of a VHS tape and not remastered for DVD viewing, and I was (unfortunately) correct in that assumption, what a shame this is one of Betty Grables best movies (as I understand it, it was her favorite) now considering that Grable movies kept FOX from bankruptcy during and even after the second world war, you might think that Grable fans would be rewarded (as would her memory) by digital remastering and doing things right, but no, Fox has no respect for her at all, what a shame, Fox executives should hang their heads in shame, if watching VHS is fine with you good on ya, it's not fine with me, so I will trade it for something else, since Warner is taking old classics and doing it right, maybe they will step in (one can only hope) ... show more

  • Betty Grable's Personal Favorite Musical!
Betty Grable stars, for the first time with Dan Dailey, in this story of a vaudeville family. Betty is hand-picked by Dan from the chorus to co-star in his new act. Soon after they are married and two daughters are added to the family (Mona Freeman and Connie Marshall). There are many wonderful musical moments and some great songs as the story moves from the vaudeville stage to the eldest daughter's high school graduation. Songs include, Berlington Bertie From Bow, You Do, This Is My Favorite City, Kokomo Indiana, Stumbling, Rolling Down Bowling Green, Silent Night... The most exciting news is that Fox Cinema Archives got this one right. This may be the best looking of all their dvds. The picture quality, the color and the sound are as good as it gets. You may want to pump up the color setting on your TV a bit, but it looks great either way. There are no extras, but if you love this film, don't hesitate to add it to your collection. ... show more

  • Lovely Nostalgic Musical in a Lovely Technicolor Print
An outstanding print for this Fox Cinema Archives MOD of an outstanding musical, the first of four starring Betty Grable with her new leading man Dan Dailey. Based on a true story about a vaudeville family, it was the fourth most popular movie of 1947, and said to be Grable's favorite of her movies. The children are played by Mona Freeman (who also starred that year in Dear Ruth) and Connie Marshall (a hit in 1948's Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House) with Veda Ann Borg, Sara Allgood and William Frawley. Anne Baxter narrates as the youngest daughter recalling her memories. Oscar winning score by Alfred Newman. If you're into a nostalgic story with songs, this one's for you. ... show more

  • Mother Lives Forever In Our Hearts and Minds...
A whimsical tender recollection rendered in a lovely flashback narrative vehicle that recounts not only the career but also the romance of the narrator's parents. From Vaudville and beyond, Betty Grable and Dan Dailey deliver seamless dance and song numbers that underlie the natural chemistry the two possess. Similar to Meet Me In St. Louis in tone, this film yields a unique plot that celebrates the "naughty nineties" in grand style. Without a doubt, Betty Grable's best cinematic achievement... five stars is not enough. Anyone who enjoys the title mentioned above or Our Vines Have Tender Grapes, will love this piece. Pure perfection, perfect pacing, perfectly delightful! ... show more

  • One Of Her Best
Betty Grable made a ton of musicals in the 40's and 50's, and in all of them her singing, dancing, and million dollar legs are always wonderful. Nearly all of her musicals were back stage stories, and so it this pne- with a twist. It is also a family story, and it gives her the chance to show how good an actress she was which usually gets sidelined by her vivacious petformances singing and dancing. Dan Dealy was a fine performer in musicals, and in this one also a fine actor. They make a great pair on and off stage. The film quality is excellent. Give it a try. ... show more
