Sensation of 1945. 1944.
Nominated for the Oscar for Best Score, this star-studded musical comedy showcased some of the best performers of the day whose acts were linked together by a meager storyline. Featuring such greats as Cab Calloway, Woody Herman, W.C. Fields, Eleanor Powell, sophie Tucker, Gene Rodgers, Les Paul, and Dennis O’Keefe, the plot revolves around the love story between two rival publicists. This is not only Powell’s first and only non-MGM film, but also the last starring role she would ever have in Hollywood. It was additionally the last film performance by W.C. Fields.
