06/29/2013 Cute, far fetched comic musical with Bing and Joan making a fine couple. There is one amusing and impressive number that takes place in a late nite diner, as these things do in old time musicals, that is a highlight of the movie and Bing is in fine voice. A very pleasant diversion. See more 05/13/2012 Cute Crosby musical, who gets good support from Blondell and Auer, and sings "Sing a Song of Sunbeams." See more 09/05/2010 A very sentimental, and contrived movie. Crosby is charming as usual, and the romance is predictable, but I sort of liked it. See more 02/06/2010 Singing Bing Crosby is a taxi driver who finds himself custodian of a baby left by a young mother. This one is a tuneful light comedy, pleasingly done. And singing to what? Crosby, the taxi driver, sings along to his record player inside his taxi. What a riot! I must have one of those. Crosby, our mild mannered, unasuming hero, takes charge of a baby and becomes involved with the parents.
