Rating:  - Any word on Volume 2????
Still waiting to see Springtime in the Rockies, Call Me Mister, Coney Island, Sweet Rosie O'Grady, Wabash Avenue and my favorite, Mother Wore Tights (which should have been in the first set!).
Rating: - Great... but where's volume 2??
I love this collection, and I even pre-ordered it before it came out. I am a massive Betty Grable fan and really enjoyed watching every film in this collection (especially Moon Over Miami!) but WHERE is Vol. 2????? There are so many more Betty Grable films out there that I would love to see, but a second volume doesn't seem to be on the cards as far as I can see. Alice Faye just had her volume one released very recently and already another is available for pre-order!! Pick up your game amazon and give us The Betty Grable Collection Volume 2!!
Rating:  - Grable at her best
The four movies that compose this volume, answer perfectly for what one expects from them: entertainment, pure entertainment. For when a volume 2 of Betty Grable?
Rating: - The Girl with the Million Dollar Legs Stands Strong!
This delightful set contains four of Betty Grable's colorful musicals. As more than one author has noted, Betty looked great in the Fox Technicolor Process. She had real appeal during the war years and her charms still entertain in this terrific set. Down Argentine Way also features Don Ameche and shows off the wonderful chemistry he had with Betty. It also features a fine supporting cast and great settings and costumes. Moon Over Miami adds the always personable Bob Cummings and the vibrant Carole Landis to the mix but as always it is Grable who carries the film in several great dance numbers! The Dolly Sisters almost offers two Grables for the price of one since it co-stars June Haver who made a fine "sister" and astonishing look-a-like for Betty- right down to her own Million Dollar Legs! Amazing costumes add to the fun. John Payne is as reliable as ever. He was a consistently capable performer in musicals, action films, war movies, and Westerns. Finally, Dan Dailey brings his own dance skills to the warm and amusing musical My Blue Heaven. Warning- seeing these films will only lead you want more Betty! Bring on a second box set Fox!
