3.0 out of 5 stars The Love Goddess in one of her early musicals, October 18, 2006

This review is from: Music in My Heart (DVD)

Rita Hayworth plays a classy gal named Patricia, a woman who is about to be married to Charles (Anal Mowbray), a very rich but much older man. When her cab collides with another cab, she and Bob (Tony Martin), the other rider, end up in the same cab. Patricia takes command of the destination telling Bob she's on the way to her wedding. She never lets him get in the fact that he must make the midnight boat leaving to deport him or end up in jail.
They both miss their destinations and fate steps in as two hearts become one in a whirlwind romance that includes some great musical numbers penned by Robert Wright and Chet Forrest and crooned by Martin. Ultimately, Patricia faces a hard decision, stay true to the man she's betrothed to and the one with the wealth, or listen to her heart and gamble on a man who might not be allowed to stay in the country.
Some very funny moments emerge from the cast, including George Tobias as a phony Russian aristocrat.
It's not brain science but the film is entertaining, thanks mostly to the talented Hayworth and charming Martin.

This review is from: Music in My Heart (DVD)

This is a "B" musical from Columbia Pictures in 1940. The acting is poor, the music (with one exception)is forgettable, the comedy is pathetic, and Rita Hayworth is utterly wasted. The only bright spot is the voice of Tony Martin. Still, he's wasted too, having to pretend that he can sing opera.

Save your money.
