Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Sinatra was still in the bobby-soxer phase when he made this fluffy musical about a returning GI who moves in with Brooklyn janitor Durante, falls for teacher Grayson, and sets his sights on a career in showbiz. 'Time After Time' (not the Cyndi Lauper hit) stands out among the tunes, though Frank and the Schnozz kick up a storm on 'The Song's Gotta Have Heart'.
