Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBased on his athletic dancing in films such as this one and Tom Thumb (1958), most audiences assume that Russ Tamblyn was a trained dancer. In fact, the actor had no history of dance training. He was a skilled tumbler, and that was originally slated to be his singular contribution to Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954), but his natural movement ability was so accomplished that he was incorporated more and more into the dance sequences. This would ultimately culminate in his being cast as Riff in West Side Story (1961), one of the most dance-heavy musicals in Broadway history.

Featured review
Three sailors can't stay out of trouble. Be it with the girls, mom, or conniving dandies. Plenty of action is provided through song and dance routines where everyone gives fine performances. While this was not a great musical, it was still a nice little story with some good funny spots supplied by J. Carroll Naish and Alan King.
