Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Tommy Dorsey's orchestra appears as themselves, making this essentially a feature-length gig with a spy plot awkwardly attached.
Made during WWII when Hollywood pumped out musical-comedy-propaganda hybrids to keep morale absurdly high. The mine plot is barely there because audiences just wanted to forget the war for 95 minutes.
