Like most movie musicals, the story of "Gentlemen Marry Brunettes" is silly & forgettable, but the wonderful Rogers & Hart score makes this film worthwhile. The upbeat vocal & orchestra arrangements, along with Jack Cole's dependably fabulous choreography ( Marilyn Monroe's favorite, he was the best in the business) ring the bell. My favorite numbers are the delightful "Have You Met Miss Jones?," the equally swinging "I've Got Five Dollars," (Jane Russell's singing is heaven) and a jazzy arrangement of "You're Drivin' Me Crazy." The blackface number is of its time. If you like this movie's kind of music, you'll find lots to enjoy here.
