with Van Heflin
In this enchanting and lighthearted musical comedy, Judy plays a small-town girl who wants to be an actress. Lily, in fact, will do almost anything to get on the stage and so in the great tradition of Hollywood in its heyday that's exactly what happens. Romance, songs, a witty script and scintillating performances make this rarely seen movie a holiday treat and TOMMY DORSEY and BOB CROSBY and their bands
