Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSpeaking debut of Debbie Reynolds; she had been in June Bride (1948) previously, but without dialogue.
- GoofsTony Pastor was born in 1837, so he would have been much older than Gordon MacRae.
However, actors are not required to be the same chronological age as persons they portray. Age is just a number, and after all, they are *acting*.

Featured review
slight Warners musical fare
Rosie O'Grady's daughters (Marsha Jones as Katie, June Haver as Patricia, Debbie Reynolds as Maureen) live with their father (James Barton), a former vaudevilian who is still in mourning for their mother and harbouring a grudge against the theatre.
Really the interest of the film is in the musical sequences, featuring Haver with co-stars Gordon MacRae and Gene Nelson, but the story, although entertaining in parts, is so slight as to be nonexistent. It is a pleasant enough way to pass the time, though.
