Comment
After hearing Bing Crosby sing on the radio a French teacher (Marion Davies) decides to go and meet him and then follows him to Hollywood where she gets a role in the film he is making. This is not one of the better MGM musicals. There are a couple of set piece numbers and Bing Crosby sings well, with a couple of dance numbers from Marion Davies and an over the top performance from Fifi D'Orsay as the Feench actress also in love with Bing Crosby.
