Jane Powell was great !
Hi movie fans...
Saw Delightfully Dangerous last night , I was very impressed by Ms. Powells
performance . I came into this knowing nothing about the (then) young lady and
couldn't wait to get on IMDB and find out more about her . I am not the biggest fan of the musical genre but thought her portrayal convincing - was
wondering all through the film how old this actress really was ( she was 16
playing a 15 year old).
Of course the movie has a few flaws but then most do , like where did Sherry
get the cash for her big makeover for her night out with Ralph Bellemy ? She had
her hair done , I think she was wearing a fur and that dress didn't come from
Woolworths . And all throughout Ralph Bellemy is saying she is too young to
work in theater but there she is in the big finale number with her sister.
But when she went into the burlesque house and saw her big sister didn't
you feel for her ? Watch her body language and facial expressions - she used
them very well .
