5.0 out of 5 stars One of Betty's Favorites, September 26, 2008

By

This review is from: Sweet Rosie O'Grady (DVD)

Betty Grable once said that this was one of her two favorite musicals to make. (The other was Mother Wore Tights (1947), which also deserves to be released on DVD). Sweet Rosie O'Grady has a sweet story, lovely costumes, glamorous Technicolor and beautiful songs. Add to that, excellent support from Robert (Father Knows Best) Young, Adolphe Menjou, Reginald Gardiner, and Virginia Grey. But the real/reel reason to watch is that sweet, lovely, glamorous, beautiful star with the million dollar legs---Betty Grable! Much more talented than the critics gave her credit for, Grable can charm the pants off the Police Gazette (where Young and Menjou hang their hats). And when she cuddles up in a bubble bath and sings that scrumptious song, your heart is going to melt. (By the way, the photo is from Wabash Avenue (1950), another Grable musical that needs to be released on DVD!).

5.0 out of 5 stars Where Is Volume 2?, March 21, 2009

By 

Bonnie1956 - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sweet Rosie O'Grady (DVD)

I love Betty Grable musicals and remember seeing several in re-releaes in early childhood with my parents, sometimes twice. (She was my father's favorite actress). I loved the costumes, singing, and dancing and have bought or recorded every film available. I remember asking for and being given Betty Grable paper dolls and coloring books and relished learning to tap dance because of her. Since buying Vol. 1, I've been awaiting a Vol. 2. Why Alice Faye, who I don't remember but whose musicals I now own and do enjoy, and not Betty Grable?
