Plots(1)
Agent Steve Hollis (Johnny Johnston) and his bass playing pal Corny (Henry Slate) quit their big band gigs and hit the road, where they happen upon Haley and his band in a Podunk farming town. Although they don't quite know what to make of the Comets' music ("It isn't boogie, it isn't jive, it isn't swing… it's kinda all of 'em!"), they know a hot prospect when they find one and promise to secure them a legitimate shot at the big time. Complications ensue, including romantic ones. Haley and his band are on fire; they're lip-syncing, but the recordings of "See You Later Alligator," the title tune, and others are filled with snap and crackle, the musicians are great, the stage show is a riot, and the dancing siblings are amazing.
