Hollywood's handful of Technicolor cameras got a real workout on 20th Century-Fox's Down Argentine Way.

The Dolly Sisters is the heavily Hollywoodized biopic of Jennie and Rosie Dolly, Hungarian-born entertainers who took Broadway by storm in the early 1900s. Betty Grable plays Jennie and June Haver plays Rosie; their uncle is the inevitable "funny foreigner" S.Z. Sakall, who manages their career from childhood. Passing an important audition for ...

The Beautiful Blonde from Bashful Bend

The Beautiful Blonde from Bashful Bend (1949) more movies like this

directed by Preston Sturges
featuring Betty Grable, Cesar Romero, Rudy Vallee, Olga San Juan, Sterling Holloway

Preston Sturges' final American film was generally conceded to be a disaster in 1949; even star Betty Grable publicly bad-mouthed the finished product. When seen today, Beautiful Blonde from Bashful Bend, while no classic, seems a lot better than it did five decades ago. Grable plays a western dancehall girl named Freddie, who is forced to take it ...

Pin-Up Girl (1944) more movies like this

directed by H. Bruce Humberstone
featuring Betty Grable, John Harvey, Martha Raye, Joe E. Brown, Eugene Pallette

Despite the film's title, Pin-Up Girl offers surprisingly few glimpses of the famed Betty Grable "gams." This lively Technicolor musical casts Gable as Lorrie Jones, secretary at a USO canteen frequented by handsome servicemen. Falling in love with war hero Tommy Dooley (John Harvey), Lorrie contrives to be near him wherever he goes by posing as a ...

directed by Walter Lang
featuring Betty Grable, Victor Mature, Jack Oakie, Thomas Mitchell, George Barbier, Hilo Hattie

One of the shortest and sweetest of Betty Grable's Technicolor musicals, Song of the Islands casts the Leggy One as Eileen, the daughter of Hawaii-based Irish planter Dennis O'Brien (Thomas Mitchell).

Give Me a Sailor (1938) more movies like this

directed by Elliott Nugent
featuring Martha Raye, Bob Hope, Betty Grable, Jack Whiting, J.C. Nugent

Bob Hope and Jack Whiting are amorous sailors. Martha Raye is the "ugly duckling" sister of beautiful Betty Grable. The complication? Everyone's in love with the wrong person: Martha pines for Jack who pines for Betty who pines for Bob, and so it goes. The casting seems to be mixed up as well. Betty Grable would have been the likely candidate for ...
