They look like characters from movie musicals--From the Oklahoma farmboy hoping he can lure his sweetheart back from the big city, to the flim-flam man in the white suit singing his marriage proposal to the lovely lady he just spied for the first time five minutes ago, to the slick producer offering to back the has-been mivie star's comeback, to the mother gently reassuring her daughter that there's more than one fish in the sea, and that she's young yet.

Each is happening in song, and the surprise is how each song was cleverly designed to harmonize so that we hear all the songs together in one crazy carefully-planned accident of a contrapuntal production number.

By the end of the movie, They'll all find true love, but not with who you think.

Oh, and before the movie ends, there will be a synchronized dance number with the Pullman porters that you just know is racist, but you're not sure why.

i noticed there were no afr-american pullman porters. and the use of red and turquoise would put this in the 50s, i think.
