Flop?
Why was this movie a flop? I liked this movie and I thought there was nothing wrong with it.....does anyone think something is wrong with this movie?

It's a perfectly fine movie, with some clever songs. And Munson's performance is nicely hesitant. The movie more than likely flopped at the box office because at the time, the market was glutted with musicals and the public had had enough of basically filmed stage shows, many times with the best songs taken out. It would take 42nd Street three years later to bring something new to the film musical and renew the public's interest in them.
