Light fanfare with Bette Grable, Don Ameche, Bob Cummings, and Carol Landis in a fun-filled film.The Technicolor by the always reliable Natalie Kalmus in really great here.We never get tired of plots dealing with 3 ladies trying to get rich guys for themselves. This picture isn't How to Marry a Millionaire (1953) but it's enjoyable along with the marvelous dancing and singing.As the aunt, Charlotte Greenwood joins in the fun. Did anyone notice how depressed Carol Landis looked? She would kill herself 7 years later.Jack Haley, as the snooping butler, is a joy to watch. He provides an excellent foil to Miss Greenwood.

I love this film! The music in this film is light and fun. I would say this is the kind of movie that would have taken my mind off coming away from the depression. This movie is not heavy;however if you you want a charming entertaining film this is it! I enjoyed it's simple plot even more then some of the 50's remakes. Remember that not all studio budgets are the same; not everything is wiz of oz. If you like Betty it was one of her most charming. I wish this was easier to get on DVD. Remember to see it before you judge. Everyone has to enjoy it for them self. I was taken in on there journey and enjoyed the chemistry between Betty and her leading man . I love when I can not have to worry about getting my happy endings.

Here I go again raving about Grable, but this time her main man is Don Ameche. Beautiful music and scenery, and the comedy of Jack Haley, Charlotte Greenwood, Carole Landis. They were all good actors, and how sad it is to tell about Carole Landis' suicide. And, also Robert Cummings plays as a comedian in this; something I didn't remember him ever doing because he was usually a good dramatic actor. I lived in Ft Lauderdale between 1943 and 1946 and went to U of M in Coral Gables. I spent much time on Flagler Ave and the beach at night under that big beautiful moon over Miami.

One of my favorite Betty Grable films! Beautiful scenery, beautiful songs and excellent choreography! Betty's costumes were really stunning and I wonder if the studio used a different designer for this film. It's all about losing out on an inheritance for the two Latimer sisters and their Aunt Susan because of taxes, so the three take off for Miami so Betty can find a millionaire husband. As usual, Betty doesn't have any trouble finding a man and that is when all the fun starts. They have a great time and so will you when you watch this film.
