Charming but slight.

Rating: 7/10 (7 October 2019)

Starting with a bargain basement Busby Berkeley traffic-jam dance routine and ending with two alternative finishes.A what if and a what really.
The weaknesses are the songs and the singers ,which is a fair part of the film.Its strengths such as they are is the chemistry of the leading pair and for a while the plot trajectory. It putters out over two competing ambitions.His purist jazz obsession,predictably,at odds with her acting and writing.Wouldn't you know it but simultaneous achieving of both signals the end and a five year leap into the future and another coincidental path crossing where our heroine imagines life with him if she had stayed.Big mistake! She'll be back!
