I had never seen Gale Storm in a movie: I knew she made some, but just hadn't seen any. Then I came across this one. The story has all the classic elements: kind hearted, widowed dad taking care of his daughter the best he can. He owns a saloon in the Bowery to support him and his daughter who works in the saloon as a singer. He has political causes that on the surface are a source of his problems but the underlaying cause is an evil sister-in-law who wants to take his daughter away from him and give her a respectable life (which will rid her of any potential embarrassment). If you do come across this, don't go into it thinking that you'll find the meaning of life - just sit back and enjoy the fun and the music -- there's nothing deep here.
