The low budget Universal musicals of the 1940s didn't get much TV play in Australia when I was growing up. A shame since they're a lot of fun. Low budget yes but it was Universal, so production values are high.
This was Donald O'Connor's first film under contract to Universal. There's a bunch of teens in it - including Peggy Ryan - but O'Connor is the one who has individuality. Gloria Jean is pretty as a rich girl who sings. The Andrews Sisters are in it.
Not a lot of story - basically put on a show - but done with energy and verve.
