Music in the opening credits is great! Just makes you feel good. Film is fun. Always a pleasure to see Guy Madison. Thanks for posting this
Diana Lynn was a cutie……that must be why my Mother named me after her…lol
What a cast. Dreamboat Guy Madison, concert pianist Diana Lynn, Wicked Witch Margaret Hamilton and “Granny” Irene Ryan. I’d never heard of this. Thx. for posting.
I forgot to mention war hero Audie Murphy.
Not a very good movie, but Diana Lynn was very easy on the eyes.
