The Big Beat 1957  N/R, 82 min.
Genre: Comedy
Director: Will Cowan
Cast: William Reynolds, Andra Martin, Gogi Grant, Jeffrey Stone, Rose Marie, Hans Conried, Fats Domino, Leigh Taylor-Young, Harry James
Fats Domino singing "I'm Walking" and the Diamonds singing "Little Darling" are some of the highlights of this movie that features a good collection of musical talent (including the Mills Brothers, Harry James, George Shearing, and the Four Aces)–unfortunately, they are backed up by a silly plot.
