Spring Song

A modestly produced but enjoyable musical that was quite well thought of in its day, but has hardly been seen since until its showing on Talking Pictures today. The likeable Carol Raye, apparently still with us, is charming in the lead in a dual role and excels in modern (1946) musical numbers as well as those of the late Edwardian period in which most of the film is set. Lawrence O' Madden with his Irish brogue is agreeably cast as her father and Peter Graves is good as the rascally undergraduate and his heroic nephew. Carol Raye had only a short career in British films, but appeared in several other enjoyable productions, including another musical, Waltz Time, in which she again co-starred with Peter Graves, and the melodramas Green Fingers and While I Live.
