Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Lively Technicolor musical bearing more than a slight resemblance to Oklahoma, with a grown-up Durbin as the girl travelling against her father's wishes to meet her fiancé in California but falling for another man instead. A spirited score by Jerome Kern and EY Harburg, plus some fine location photography, allow a strong supporting cast to display its talents.
