I liked this movie. I especially liked the colors and Jeannette's fabulous blue suit against her flaming red hair. Ray Bolger as the Dutch dancer in the beginning is just wonderful and hilarious, and his athletic moves still astound. He must have been eating some powerful breakfast cereal. All of the dancers in this scene are so perfect and entertaining. I also liked the the part where the 2nd-type Nelson and Jeannette are the second leg of the tour, and where Douglas MacPhail and Betty (his wife IRL) are interspersed in their Sweethearts roles. I enjoyed seeing Frank Morgan, and marvel at his calling himself old -- and yet he was only 48 in this movie. Was this his own white hair, or studio aging? Even in his Wizard of Oz, he has white hair and appears older and yet is not. Most of all in this movie, I like the singing of Jeannette and Nelson. 13/10.
