kevin w Der Bingle competently helms this Tinseltown look at a vaudeville promoter who specialized in kiddie acts. There's plenty of sing-along tunes to recognize and nod along with. The old showbiz razzmatazz! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Fictionalized biography of Gus Edward (Bing Crosby) with some lively production numbers; Crosby scored hit singles with "An Apple for the Teacher" and "The Man and His Dream." Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
