Strangely appealing.
3 January 2004
I saw this film last night on the TCM network and it was really strange. There was a rather un politically correct dance sequence that involved Native Americans (well actually not native Americans) and Cliff Robertson appeared as a "Chief" who appears to be smoking something rather strong in his peace pipe as he passes out a few times during the number. There is also another scene in which the rich guy drives Jane Powell home from Tijuana in a taxi with the cab driver in the back seat and the rich guy is drunk as a lord, yikes what would MADD have to say about that! Overall the musical score was weak but there was an interesting dance number on a flooded stage that was shall we say unique. I'm not quite sure I would recommend this film unless the watcher had some of that stuff that Cliff Robertson had in that pipe in the Indian number but hey it is a surreal film who knows you might like it.
