A DIFFERENT BUT WINNING BETTY GRABLE
An atypical Betty Grable movie that allows her star to shine brightly, proving she was a far better actress than she gave herslef credit for.
Fox darkened her hair and sent her legs into hiding, apart from a couple of brief flashes of ankle, resulting in an excellent performance from her as Boston's first female typewriter (typist), who becomes a women's suffrage leader and convinces the man she loves that women are equal, too.
A lively supporting cast, including Anne Revere, Gene Lockhart and Allyn Joslyn, assists Grable in making this one fun to watch.
Love this film!
How can you possibly go wrong with any film starring Betty Grable? I think this is one of her best. I sure miss those Betty Grable days - and nights.
Betty Grable at her best
This film gave Betty Grable the best opportunity to show her acting talent and a leading man that was a much better singer than most of her others. The film had a good story and costumes were relevant rather than an excuse to show off Betty's legs.
