Head Over Heels

Jessie Matthews is an aspiring singer, torn between two men: radio engineer Robert Flemyng and singer Louis Borel. When Borel goes off to Hollywood with glamorous Whitney Bourne, the field is left open for Flemyng, but that would leave the movie too short.

Based on a play by Francis de Croisset, it remains firmly anchored in Paris, although everyone but Borel seems to be English. Miss Matthews does far too little dancing, and the Gordon-Revell songs don't seem to be topnotch -- I suspect they weren't as well orchestrated as their Hollywood efforts. Still, despite its rather abrupt ending, it's an amiable vehicle for Miss Matthews under the direction of her husband, Sonnie Hale. With Romney Brent and Fred Duprez.
