A predictable story with some memorable songs.
27 July 2004
This Bing Crosby and Gloria Jean film is both predictable and somewhat sappy. However the musical numbers more than make up for the contrived plot. The title song, "If I Had My Way" written by James Kendis (the composer of "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles") was the highlight of the movie. This song has been recorded numerous times by Frank Sinatra, The Mills Brothers, Kate Smith and most recently by Willie Nelson. Crosby's version was beautifully done as he sang to Gloria Jean. Gloria Jean was a beautiful 12 year old. She went on to make many B films. Bing Crosby recorded the title song on many albums. His deep, rich voice on the film version is one of his best efforts. The supporting cast added some comedy to the plot. A film well worth viewing from 64 years ago.
