Red Skelton at his best with Eleanor Powell as a perfect foil. A weird remake of horrid Born to Dance. W E Powell and J Stewart from 1936
This 1943 film uses same finale but after Wonderful Jimmy Dorsey band and Hazel Scott (jazz piano) and Lena Horne at her best numbers.
Plus the most hysterical 'groom putting to bed bride' number you will ever see!
MOVIE GETS 9/10 or Heck 10/10 for comedies, plus added benefit if foiling German spies blowing up Lend Lease munitions in building next door!

Tha last number was a repeat from Born to Dance but the film is actually a remake if a Buster Keaton film.
