I am shocked to realise this hilarious film is now 26 years old! Films
from 1964 seen in 1988 looked a zillion years apart.....how can a 1980s
film like this one still be so new and play so fresh in 2010? Apart
from it being funnier and truly inspired I really now appreciate more
the legacy of John Hughes in his series of films that were released in
that 5 year span 1984-89. An...

As a fan and friend of the late Jane Froman, I found the film to be as

to Ms. Froman's life as possible. Susan Hayward learned Ms. Froman's
poise
and mannerisms directly from her and did an amazing job both in acting and
lipsinking Ms. Froman's songs. Jane Froman's talent and courage inspired
many persons all over the world and her legacy of music lives on through
