Romantic Musical.

Rita Hayworth is alluring and I know the song writers are a famous team and all that but I didn't hear a memorable number in the score. I have to admit I only watched this piece of fluff with one eye, so I may have missed a good dance or two. Marc Platt is accomplished and, of course, Hayworth used to be Margarita Cansino, part of a Spanish dance team before she was glamorized by Harry Cohn.

Rita Hayworth and Janet Blair have a colorful number in which the duo sing about the boy they left behind while prancing around in form-fitting long johns -- Blair pink, Hayworth blue.

Lee Bowman provides the male glamor as an RAF officer, though he's no more convincing than usual. Some events during the blitz dampen the light-hearted ambiance.

It's not worth going out of your way to watch although it's a minor divertissement.
