Kay Kyser is an aspiring composer with the gift of an "evil eye" that allows him to put people in a trance. He gets mixed up with gruff boxing manager William Gargan and his girlfriend Marilyn Maxwell. A rare outing where Kyser plays a character that isn't himself. It might be the only one come to think of it. The evil eye scenes are silly fun. The musical numbers are good. The best parts of the movie are Kyser's interactions with his regular bandmates, who in this play a swing band that is reluctantly saddled with Kyser's more classical oriented composer. Harry James and Tommy Dorsey also have a funny cameo with the film's biggest laugh. Despite a solid cast offering support, this one is little more than a passable time-killer.
