Moon Over Miami
23 December 2009
If the plot of Moon Over Miami sounds very familiar, it was a remake of Loretta Young's 1938 film Three Blind Mice, which was also remade as Three Little Girls in Blue in 1947. Then, in 1953, elements of Three Blind Mice and the Joan Blondell 1932 comedy The Greeks Had a Word for Them were combined for the Betty Grable and Marilyn Monroe film How to Marry a Millionaire. The film is pleasantly packaged, but the script is too clichéd. If you are content to be dazzled by Betty Grable's and Carole Landis' beauty, then you might find the film a pleasant way to spend an evening. Moon Over Miami is a rather weak movie musical, and, in most instances, the songs are not particularly memorable or plot relevant. It is merely escapist entertainment.
