"What a fun film! Danny Kaye playing the role of a stuffy researcher who runs into hot and saucy Virginia Mayo. There is a fantastic performance of great jazz musicians of the era: Louis Armstrong, Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman, and so many others. It was a nice treat to see them all play together. The film has some sweet moments, and of course, some physical comedy."
