This spritely tale of two lovesick sailors on shore leave in Hollywood co-stars beautiful Kathryn Grayson as Susie, an aspiring young singer, and child star Dean Stockwell as her nephew who wants to run away and join the Navy. Both sailors fall hard for Susie, with "Sea Wolf" Joe Brady (Kelly) rivaling his bookish best friend Clarence (Sinatra) for her affections. The race for Susie's heart leads them both into a series of comical and musical adventures. Dazzling dance numbers abound with virtuoso Kelly leaping through a high-spirited sequence with an animated mouse, and performing a thrilling tango for Susie's benefit.

Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra in one film. That's a pretty good connection that works. Frank Sinatra simply had an incredible voice, but the film also stands on Kelly's performance. Both are fun and playful, as is the film, which also uses animated elements when it feels like it. The romance isn't surprising but it is nice.
