THANK & COUNT YOUR LUCKY STARS. tHIS MOVIE IS SUPERB AND VERY AMUSING WITH STARS OF YESTERYEAR.

This comedy with a long list of famous acting legends was made to profit actors' charity to WWII efforts.
Bette Davis makes her 1940's appearance as "thee" great actor of the era. Most of the performers are doing activities that they are not famous for! So Bette Davis' obvious well-built-up and deserved cameo performance involves her singing and dancing! Anyone who knows Bette Davis vita of film performances is sure to be aware that she didn't do musicals! However, her number is "Their Either Too Young or Too Old," and she's performing it directly to the service members who are overseas in WWII, it is a classic performance which she pulls off quite well.
The whole movie is pure entertainment, hilarious, and also includes stars like a young and beautiful Dinah Shore singing several songs which she was famous for doing. Eddie Cantor is a key figure in this production. If at all possible to own it in mint condition this one is a piece of US citizens' war efforts of ... Read More

Here is another wartime film, a light story with plenty of stars and plenty of musical distractions. Eddie Cantor plays two men- himself and a cabby named Joe. Joe hated Eddie Cantor and is miffed to no end that people always tell him he looks like the comedian. However, his appearance comes in handy when his friends get in a jam. Tony (Dennis Morgan) is a singer who can't wait for his big break and Pat (Joan Leslie) is a songwriter who will do anything to have people listen to "Moon Dust." They plan a switcheroo between Cantor and Joe so that Joe can throw his weight around at a big show filled with stars like John Garfield, Dinah Shore, Errol Flynn, Bette Davis, Olivia de Havilland, Ida Lupino, etc. and speaking of look-alikes, Spike Jones makes an appearance, and he's a dead-ringer for James Cagney. Further, Leslie does several impressions of stars throughout the film.
Of course, it is sort of annoying how long the film is, but if you enjoy seeing these stars singing and dancing, ... Read More

When I was a teenager (and that was QUITE a while ago) I had a goal to see all of Humphrey Bogart's films. I decided that there should be no exceptions; if it was on his fimography, I had to see it. For some reason, I have yet to see "Sirocco" but the other remaining 15 movies are an otherwise mishmash of supporting roles in movies that might not even be available anymore. The list WAS 16 until I saw "Thank Your Lucky Stars" last night. I'm not sure I'm thankful for having watched the whole 2 hours+ just to see 30 seconds of Bogart in a cameo appearance. I knew it would just be a cameo appearance but I didn't realize how limited the rest of the movie would be. The story focuses on three characters; Eddie Cantor (in a dual role), Dennis Morgan, and Joan Leslie who are trying to get a break into Hollywood stardom by crashing an all-star revue. The movie spends WAY too much time on their antics. I'm sure that this would have been a better 90 minute film than the overly long movie it was. As ... Read More

When Eddie Cantor gets involved in setting up a celebrity wartime revue for troops at home and abroad, the hilarious results are spectacular. See the Warner Brothers roster of all-star talent as you've never seen them before!
Errol Flynn performing "That's What You Jolly Well Get", John Garfield singing "Blues in the Night" and Bette Davis lamenting "They're Either Too Young Or Too Old" are just three of the priceless gems in this delightful collection.
