Movie Reviews of Happy Go Lovely
Movie Review: A great musical
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great dvd of "Happy Go Lovely," a really good musical. Vera-Ellen and David Nivan make a great pair. Some great dance numbers scenery. It also takes place in Scotland. It's a good story of a businessman falling in love with a dancer
One of Vera Ellen's best musicals I think.

Summary: 4 Stars
HAPPY GO LOVELY is a charming musical, filmed in England and set against the backdrop of the Edinburgh Festival. Vera-Ellen, considered the greatest female dancer of her generation (and the best dancer to have been employed at MGM) plays Janet Jones, a young corps dancer in a new musical called "Frolics to You". Thanks to a case of jumping to the wrong conclusion, director Frost (Cesar Romero) believes Janet is the girlfriend of millionaire B.G. Bruno (David Niven). Frost decides to get B.G. to bankroll the musical and put Janet in the starring role. Comedic situations ensue before Janet and B.G. really find love in the final reel.
Fans of musicals (and in particular fans of the magnificent Vera-Ellen) will find HAPPY GO LOVELY a wonderful movie experience. Vera-Ellen is showcased in several musical numbers where she displays her unique combination of balletic grace, athleticism and coquettish charm. David Niven and Cesar Romero are great and the supporting cast features top British actors (Gordon Jackson, Bobby Howes and Joyce Carey to name three, but it's fun trying to spot others).
Alpha's DVD includes a decent print, perhaps a bit too bright and overexposed at times, but still very watchable
