...show. And she hasn't the expert showmanship; she just isn't actress or sorceress enough. She manipulates herself, and the kitchen chair that is her only prop, in all sorts of bold, mannered, ingenious ways; but they call too much attention to themselves, or seem too cute, or wear thin too soon, or don't really blend with her songs. It is her voice that is true theater, not these stage tricks; and when she sings the old favorites as encores, the voice is all that is needed...

In fact, if the average Hollywood picture had an approach to sex and life as healthy and honest as Producer Disney shows here, no parent would need think twice about sending his children to the movies...
...parties, amidst coveys of newsmen and crushing hordes of fans in Manhattan. They were married on Author Louis Bromfield's farm in Ohio in May 1945. "It was a big mess." says Betty. "Bogie shed tears all through the ceremony. He cries at weddings. He's very cute about it. It was fun. It was exciting. Bogie's a wonderful husband...
