Betty Grable and June Haver pour on the singing, dancing and show-biz razzmatazz in this jaunty tale of sisters who become vaudeville sensations in Europe and America. Grable, then in the fourth year of her decade-long reign as a Top 10 box office star, grabs the spotlight as Jenny, a gifted performer torn by career demands and by her on-again, off-again romance with a Tin Pan Alley tunesmith (John Payne). Laced throughout are songs (including the Oscar® -nominated "I Can't Begin to Tell You") and splashy production numbers that let the GI's favorite pinup girl show off her talents and the gams that Fox, in a noted publicity stunt, had insured for a million dollars.
