  This is just a wonderful film and I cannot believe that Gladys George wasen't nominated for an academy award for her supurb performance. What were the voters thinking that year.?

Maytime   1937     3 stars    N/R, 132 min.
Genre: Musical
Director: Robert Z. Leonard  
Cast: Jeanette MacDonald, Nelson Eddy, John Barrymore, Herman Bing, Tom Brown, Lynne Carver, Rafaela Ottiano, Paul Porcasi, Sig Ruman, Harry Davenport

  An opera star and a poor singer fall in love in Paris, but she marries her mentor. They later reunite as leads in an opera. This is one of the famed singing duo's best films, with wonderful music, but, of course, a weak story. Based on Sigmund Romberg's Broadway musical, all music was changed except one: "Will You Remember (Sweetheart)."

  Football star John Kent (Randolph Scott) travels to Paris with "Huck" Haines' (Fred Astaire) band. But, when the band is told by the proprietor that he does not want them to perform, they head to John's Aunt Roberta's (Helen Westley) posh fashion boutique. They meet Huck's old girlfriend Lizzie (Ginger Rogers) who is now the singer Comtesse Schyarwenka, and she finds a job for the band. Meanwhile, Aunt Roberta passes away, and John inherits the boutique and enters into a partnership with Aunt Roberta's assistant Stephanie (Irene Dunne). This is a very early Astaire/Rogers pairing, and it is worthwhile viewing.

In this episode, Dr. Kildare, upon graduation, decides not to join his father's practice in a small town; rather, he chooses a large hospital in NYC. He gets in trouble right away when he is blamed for the death of an important politician. The wheel-chair-bound Dr. Gillespie helps prove Kildare's innocence and, by story's end, becomes his mentor.
