Wonder ManIt's a cute film, and well worth seeing. Vera-Ellen plays the costar/fiancee of a nightclub performer (Danny Kaye). They have one number together ('Bali Boogie'), and she solos in 'So In Love'. Her singing may be dubbed but her dancing is spectacular. She'd worked with the choreographer, Robert Alton, on Broadway, and he obviously knew how to choreograph to her strengths. When people ask me to recommend Vera-Ellen movies, this one is on the list.Musical ~ RKO ~ 1945 Director: H.
