Billy Rose's Diamond Horseshoe (1945)

Directed by George Seaton
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Fox Movie Channel)

Betty Grable stars in this Technicolor musical set in the famous New York nightclub. Dick Haymes is an aspiring crooner who woos her. They've got trouble from his father, who also performs at the nightclub, and wants him to become a doctor. The basic plot allows plenty of room for elaborate dance numbers performed at the club. Willie Solar gives a memorable performance as a vaudevillian clown who sings in jive.
