Featured review
Strange casting.
Others have covered the plot line and other details about this movie, which I have seen on TV a number of times. I am always puzzled by the casting. The most glaring example of an actress being miscast is Beryl Reid playing one of the teeny bopper fans of crooner, Ronnie Baker (Denis Lotis).
Reid was 37 when this film was made, and it shows.
Denis Lotis was around 31 years old. He was always in the shadow of superior American crooners. Although he was promoted as a bit of a heartthrob, scenes of him being mobbed by hoards of teenage girls are over exaggerated.
Soon after this film was made, he was blown out of the water by the gathering rock 'n' roll phenomenon. British stars such as Cliff Richard, Billy Fury, Marty Wilde, etc., really did have screaming girls in their audience, and Lotis became a 'square'.
