Singin' in the Rain co-stars Donald O'Connor and Debbie Reynolds were re-teamed in the ebullient little musical I Love Melvin. O'Connor plays Melvin Hoover, the hapless assistant to Look magazine photographer Mergo (Jim Backus). When he falls in love with chorus girl Judy LeRoy (Reynolds), Melvin claims that he's the magazine's head photographer. Carrying the ruse to the limit, Melvin arranges to shoot a portrait of Judy and her entire family, insisting that it appear on the cover of Look. On

The appealing energetic cast do wonders with the slight material.
Silly, typical '50s teen type fluff with competent O'Connor and Reynolds in leads.
OK musicial, but hardly an MGM classic.
This has the Famous Dance Number where Debbie is the Dancing/Flying Football & the Team Throws her around. Sexy yet Cute at the same time in a nearly Nude Costume, a very memorable scene in Cinema History.Donald O'Connor makes his own Cinematic imprint with a Roller Skate Dance in a Gazebo, as well as A Prop & Set
