MW plays a Liilain Russell-type, sings 4 songs in a 19th century music hall, but IMDb refuses to give this either Musical or Music genre.
Ellington and some of his band members are visible during the Memphis Blues number, and one other.
The music is good, the dialog VERY racy given that this was approved by the Breen office.
MW's costumes are extra gorgeous with lots of fur and jeweled trimmings.
Paramount, dir. McCarey; 6+
