Cast: Deanna Durbin, Donald O'Connor, John Dall, Charles Winninger, Helena Carter

sez says: If you like Durbin's singing you will no doubt like this..I am not a big fan --but I acknowledge she has a remarkable voice. Too bad she didn't use it with better music. This is a typical --totally unrealistic and silly--comedy of errors story.  Rich family mistakes the identity of a young woman, kidnaps her and tried to get her to 'sign papers' to keep her quite about something she never did...meanwhile love hatches between her and one of her captors. Meanwhile, the real gem in this show, Donald O'Connor, sings and dances and is generally entertaining.   There are some wild hair-dos and some snazzy clothing to look at along the way.  (Grade C and that just because O'Connor is so talented)
