Viewing Notes

Sickly sweet musical set in Tahiti but actually shot in Hawaii, as I suspected. Esther Williams is a dream but funny how she speaks broken English in the beginning then perfect English by the halfway point. Musical numbers are just okay. A little surprised how short the runtime is for a MGM musical production.
