David K This Busby Berkeley musical falls short simply because of budget constraints. He does the best he can within that budget, but it shows. If you're a fan of his unique work (I am) you'll want to catch it. If not familiar with it, check out "Gold Diggers of 1933" or "42nd Street" first. If that doesn't hook you, then this won't either.

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member good entry but not the best in the 'gold digger' series Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member A clear improvement from the stale 1935 version but failed to bring anything fresh to the table. You can see how the studios began to peddle these musicals despite their minimal plot. This time round the focus is back on the Gold Diggers & The Broadway Scene itself. Dick Powell plays a Life Insurance salesman who lands the deal of a lifetime with a theatre mogul. Like all of these Hollywood Studio Products the push is always the final number. Features so extraordinary choreography & music, a great musical of its time. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member As this series went along, it got weaker and weaker; only two things merit a mention: the song "With Plenty of Money and You" and the Busby Berkeley finale, "All's Fair In Love and War." Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Amiable but generic for an hour and a half, then absolutely magical for the final ten minutes. Of note: Dick Powell sports one of the most misguided mustaches in all of cinema in this movie. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
