An energetic musical that offers a few well staged dance numbers, but is unable to deliver the goods when it comes to plot and character development. Jane Powell is pretty cute in the lead, however.
Farley Granger plays a man picked up for speeding in a small town. Making an example of him, the judge sentences him to 30 days in the local jail. The judges daughter (Powell) is intrigued by him and tries to rehabilitate him.
THe musical numbers overshadow everything else. Bobby Van is responsible for a dance sequence which is by far the highlight of the entire film.
