Judy Garland at her sexiest and most comedic, all at once.

[Gene Kelly's] ever-present grin, muscular dancing, and torrentially physical acting are fascinating if not infectiously aggressive.

Stylish, but overbearing musical.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Rating: B --
Consciosuly campy, this musical was misunderstood at the time. While Cole Porter's songs lack his trademark wit, the sumpruous sets and exotic costumes compensate for the slender fable,the highlight of which is Judy's rendition of "Be a Clown."
