Storyline

Tommy (Peter Lawford) is Tait College's quarterback and the biggest heartthrob on campus; unfortunately, his preoccupations with football and girls leave little time for studying. With an important game on the horizon, Tommy flunks a test. The college refuses to let Tommy play unless he retakes the test and gets a decent grade. Bookish student Connie (June Allyson) is enlisted to help; when they begin to hit it off, another seductive Tait coed grows jealous and decides to butt in.



Short Review

Here, despite the presence of rather over-age students June Allyson and Peter Lawford, Walters injects real verve and genuine joie de vivre into such numbers as Billion Dollar Baby and My Blue Heaven. A real treat for fans of musicals.
