Las Vegas Shakedown -- Las Vegas Shakedown

State Fair -- Rodgers and Hammerstein's only score written expressly for the screen highlights this delightful film about an Iowa family's adventures at the fair. The Frakes, a farming family, go to the Iowa State Fair to show the father's prize hog, Blue Boy, and enjoy the big event of the year. On the first day, both sourpuss daughter Margy and her brother Wayne find new romance, as does Blue Boy. As the fair proceeds, so do the romances! Includes the Academy Award-winning songs It Might as Well be Spring and It's A Grand Night for Singing.

Starring the ever-bewildered but lovable James Stewart, the beautiful and tempestuous Paulette Goddard, and bandleader Horace Heidt and His Thirty Musical Knights, "Pot O' Gold" revolves around the band's struggle for its "big break." The members all live in Mrs. McCorkle's boarding house and spend their time practicing on the roof. When Jimmy Haskell (Stewart) arrives in town and meets Molly (Goddard) and the band, he soon has the band on his music-hating uncle's radio show, "The Haskell Happy Hour"--and from there it's straight to the top! The film includes such splashy swing numbers as "When Johnny Toots His Horn," "Pete the Piper," "Do You Believe in Fairy Tales?" and "A Knife, a Fork, and a Spoon." Don't miss this song and dance extravaganza!

Perilous Journey

Set during the gold rush, this rousing frontier adventure follows a con man on the lam (Randolph Scott) who's determined to make a go of it as a dancehall owner in the Yukon. But a clean break proves difficult when the swindler's former sweetheart (Gypsy Rose Lee) follows him north. The sprightly numbers earned the film two Oscar nominations in the music department (Best Score and Best Song).
