Since BB is not credited here, why would I have bought this? Ann Sothern and Ethel Merman are 2 great reasons. But the lock is the Nicholas Brothers.
I Want to Be a Minstrel Man, sung by Harold Nicholas, was reused by composer Burton Lane in Royal Wedding (1951) as You're All the World to Me, where Astaire dances on the ceiling.
Later in same chapter, both Nicholas Brothers dance to Mandy at 47:05 for 1.5 glorious minutes.
Ann Sothern gets 2 musical numbers and some acting. Ethel Merman sings 3 songs and is central to the plot.
Goldwyn, dir. Del Ruth & Pogany; 6+
