(Turner Classic Movies)
Amiable send-up of Hollywood which takes place almost entirely on the Warner Bros studio lot. Doris Day is a waitress from Wisconsin looking for her big break. Jack Carson is a broke actor trying to convince a producer to let him direct his next film. He needs Dennis Morgan to star in it as well. He resorts to lies and trickery to get both Day and Morgan to go along. There are breaks for songs, some hilarious inside jokes, as well as cameos and behind-the-scenes glimpses of the famous studio at work.
