Sweet film with a simple idea - Deanna Durbin tries to get her unemployed musician father Adolphe Menjou some work so comes up with the idea of an orchestra of unemployed musicians conducted by some guy who was famous at the time.
The film lacked a villain and a third act twist; I also would have liked a little romance and was surprised none was put in.
But production values are high, there's plenty of music, Durbin is sweet but unaffecting and there are some solid character types in there like Eugene Pallette and Mischa Auer.
