Although not as brilliant as some of the MacDonald/Eddy musicals, the storyline is acceptable; boy (composer) is happily married to girl (singer) - she gets a break, succeeds big time; he struggles; through her career, they are parted; she files for divorce and is eventually engaged to be married to another man just as her ex hits the big time with a musical in which she is to star. Her fiancé realises that she still loves her ex and bows out of the picture, leaving the reconciled couple to the astounding success of the first night of the new musical..
There is a wide variety of musical numbers, most of which are very enjoyable.Regretably, the final sequence, the opening night of the new musical, is rather strangely chereographed by Busby Berkeley. If treated in a more traditional manner, as Berkeley had done during his time at Warner Brothers, it would have made a fitting climax to the film. Unfortunately, it leaves us feeling disappointed in what could have been an otherwise very enjoyable movie.
